  • Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency, Virginia Commonwealth University School of Dentistry




I have practiced dentistry since 2001. My grandpa was a carpenter and my dad worked in the fashion design industry; from them I inherited an aptitude for craftsmanship and have always been a handyman. In high school, and later college, I was drawn to science and biology. That interest, combined with the excellent hand skills and a drive for human connection, made dentistry the ideal career path.


Dental school, and then the rigorous post-doctorate residency, gave me a solid foundational understanding of dentistry. However, like all areas of healthcare, the field is constantly advancing: ongoing research means there are always newer technologies, materials, and techniques. These options can deliver easier, faster, and better treatment, with improved results.


Active pursuit of continuing education (CE) keeps me at the forefront of the latest methodologies and practices. In addition to many annual hours of CE in general dentistry, I take 25 hours of specialized courses in dental implants through the International Congress of Oral Implantologists each year. I also take classes through the Shatkin Mini Dental Implant Center and am a member of the Spear Study Club.
