Our team wants to help you feel confident again—with advanced solutions and supportive care from a team that treats you like family.
I’m a general dentist who enjoys taking care of patients of all needs and stages of care. I have a special interest in dentures and dental implants, because I see every day how a complete, comfortable smile can change the way someone feels about their life.
My goal as a dentist? I want you to feel heard, respected, and genuinely cared for every time you visit.
Before I became a dentist, I worked as an EMT-Paramedic. I was with people on some of the hardest days of their lives, often for just a short ride to the hospital.
I loved helping in those moments, but I missed the chance to build real, long-term relationships. I wanted a way to care for people where I could see them again, talk with them, and watch their health and confidence improve over time.
Dentistry gave me that.
I have always liked working with my hands, fixing things, and building projects. I enjoy woodworking and creating things from scratch, so dentistry felt natural to me. It lets me combine careful, detailed work with problem-solving and personal connection.

When you sit in my chair, I want you to feel safe and understood.
I take time to:
You will not be judged for how long it has been since your last visit or what your teeth look like now. Many patients arrive nervous or embarrassed. They often leave saying, “That was much easier than I expected.”
I believe in gentle, honest dentistry. I want you to feel that I treat you the same way I would treat a member of my own family.
I graduated magna cum laude from Creighton University School of Dentistry. During that time, I was honored to be inducted into Omicron Kappa Upsilon and Alpha Sigma Nu honor societies.
After dental school, I completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency with the U.S. Air Force and served as chief resident. My service in the Air Force taught me discipline, teamwork, and how to provide high-quality care in many different situations. I was awarded the USAF Commendation Medal for Meritorious Service, which is something I am very proud of.
To stay current with advances in dentistry, I am involved with:
These organizations help me bring proven, modern techniques and thoughtful care to every appointment.
I volunteer with Mission of Mercy dental clinics, where we provide free dental care to people who might not otherwise be able to see a dentist. These events remind me why this work matters so much. Everyone deserves relief from pain and the chance to smile without worry.
At home, I am a husband and a dad to four kids. Family is very important to me, and it shapes the way I practice. I know how busy life can be, and I know how much trust it takes to choose a dentist.
When you come to see me, my hope is that you feel welcomed, never rushed, and confident that you are in good hands. I would be honored to care for you and give you a smile you can be proud of.
