I am happily married to my wife, Natalie, and we have a 3 year old Bernese Mountain Dog named Poppy. I grew up in a small town on the central Oregon coast and ventured to the Midwest to complete my undergraduate and dental schooling upon graduating from high school. I've always enjoyed being active, being a 3 sport athlete throughout high school, and now enjoying hiking and working out. My wife and I are avid foodies and love a good glass of wine to go with our meals. We are fortunate to have both of our families in the state of Oregon and family is very important to us.
