Growing up as the youngest of four brothers in northeast Kansas, I developed a competitive spirit early on, channeling my energy into sports like track and field and football, even continuing with track in college. My love for the outdoors fuels my passion for activities like fishing, hunting, hiking, and snowboarding, which I hope to enjoy throughout my life. Driven by a belief in the importance of genuine connections, I chose dentistry as my profession, committed to doing honest work and striving to be the best version of myself for my patients and community.
