I grew up in Southeast Portland, not far from where I practice now. I went to Oregon State University and OHSU, then did my orthodontics training at University of the Pacific in San Francisco. I had nine years of active duty in the U.S. Navy and returned to Oregon to work with Kaiser Permanente in 2000.
About My Practice
I love orthodontics because it truly changes people’s lives. Lasting benefits often include more self-confidence and better oral hygiene.
How I thrive
I love skiing and cycling. Most years I do the Cycle Oregon weekend rides, and I love a good hike in the forest.
