Every patient is important, but when I can help someone become the type of individual who smiles all the time, it’s especially gratifying. From little kids who are teased or bullied about their smile, to adults who are ashamed to show their teeth socially and professionally, getting to see the transformations that happen in these people, as their beautiful, healthy smile develops, is why I look forward to coming to work each morning.

PROFESSIONAL AFFILIATIONS American Association of Orthodontists American Dental Association Midwest Society of Orthodontists Illinois Society of Orthodontists Illinois State Dental Society Chicago Dental Society AWAY FROM THE PRACTICE I grew up in the northern suburbs of Chicago and now call the Windy City my home. My life is shared with a little black mixed-breed dog, Cinder, who’s a rescue. Like many rescues, she has issues that we’re working through, though what she needs most, and what I strive to give her, are security, attention, reassurance, and love. My parents and younger brother all live within a few hours of Chicago and I enjoy being with them. When I’m not working, I spend time riding and fixing my motorcycles and scooters, playing with Cinder, camping, and snowboarding. I love to listen to live music and enjoy other arts, and spend as much time as possible actively exploring the city and the world. But it’s always nice to settle in with a good book, as well.
