I feel extremely blessed to be part of the dental profession. I love interacting with people, and ever since I was a little kid I've loved fixing things and working with my hands. Dentistry affords me the opportunity to do both!I love hearing peoples stories, and learning about their passions. I love hearing about kids sports teams, or a patients grandkids. I have patients who race cars and fly planes, others who are avid fishers and hunters, and still others who are exceptional bakers and bring us treats.I feel the difference we make in our patients lives is a healthier mouth and smile and a renewed confidence in the dental profession. We pride ourselves on selflessly treating people how we want to be treated. For some people, that results in a dramatic change in their dental condition after avoiding the dentist for many years. For others, its a congratulatory pat on the back at a cavity-free checkup.All our patients, no matter how extensive or not their dental treatment needs may be, are appreciated. Its my goal, and that of my team, to make each person feel that appreciation at every visit.EDUCATION AND CONTINUING EDUCATIONSparks High SchoolUndergraduate degree University of Nevada, RenoDoctorate of Dental Medicine Oregon Health & Science University, PortlandEach year I participate in many hours of continuing education (CE). CE keeps me on top of new research and techniques, and enables me to be more thorough and comprehensive, as well as more conservative and efficient, in the care I provide.PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIPSAmerican Dental AssociationAcademy of General DentistryNevada Dental AssociationNorthern Nevada Dental Society
