“I was born and raised in Michigan, around the metro Detroit area. I attended the University of Michigan for my undergraduate studies and graduated from the University of Detroit School of Dentistry in 1990.

I have owned two general dental practices, and recently sold my practice that focused on esthetics and treating TMJ and migraine headache patients.

Since 1996, I have pursued excellence in clinical dentistry by taking extensive post-graduate continuing education courses at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies. LVI provides many advanced courses for dentists around the world. In 1998, I was invited to become a clinical instructor for all the hands-on classes, with a focus on the Full Mouth Rehabilitation course. I was fortunate to help develop this course, which enables dentists to treat cases of advanced decay, trauma, and occlusal dysfunction, while also correcting bite problems.

I’m excited to be able to bring not only my love for esthetic dentistry to the office, but implant placement and restoration, and treating TMJ disorders.

I have been married to my wife Noreen for 30 years. Noreen is a 2nd grade teacher at Charleston Catholic School and has been teaching for 31 years. My daughter Paige is 26 and is a practicing attorney in Michigan. My son Joe is a professional musician, playing in a couple of bands. As a family, we all enjoy playing golf and trying new restaurants!”
