About Us

Thank you for choosing our team as your children’s dental home. I am excited to build positive and lasting relationships with our patients and their families in the Antelope, Auburn, and Orangevale communities over the years to come. Early dental experiences are the foundation for a lifetime of good oral health and should be made as fun and easy as possible. My primary goal is to help families prevent dental disease by promoting good habits that can begin at home. As a father myself, I understand the dedication that parents have to ensure the well-being of their family. My personal philosophy is to treat every patient as I would my own. I pride myself in providing the highest quality treatment available for my patients while making the experience as enjoyable as possible. Children should look forward to their dental appointments and I am devoted to ensuring a lifetime of healthy, happy smiles for all of my patients.

In order to provide optimal care for my patients I maintain the highest levels of accreditation and continuing education in the field of pediatric dentistry. My training began at the University of Oregon where I received a bachelor’s degree in Human Physiology. I then moved to the Bay Area where I received my Doctorate of Dental Surgery at the University of Pacific Arthur A Dugoni School of Dentistry. Following dental school I completed my first hospital based residency program at St Barnabas Hospital in Bronx, NY. I then moved home to Portland, OR where I completed a specialty residency program in pediatric dentistry at Oregon Health and Science University. I am also an active member of the American Dental Association, American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, a Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry, and College of Diplomates of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.
