I grew up in Johnstown, a small town in northern Colorado. I attended college at New Mexico State University where I studied microbiology and was a four-year track and field student-athlete. After undergrad, I married my sweetheart Allyson and we began our life adventure together. I next attended Creighton University School of Dentistry. While at Creighton, I was elected class president and served on numerous student advisory boards. Also while at Creighton I was gifted braces treatment by an Omaha orthodontist who quickly became my friend and mentor. Being in his office for braces adjustment and watching my own smile transform, I was able to see firsthand how a smile could be changed and see what a blast working with children and teens could be. I decided then that orthodontics was the path I wanted to follow.
I was commissioned as an officer in the United States Air Force after dental school, completed a residency in advanced clinical dentistry, and was awarded Officer of the Year while serving in California.
After practicing advanced clinical dentistry for five years I entered my second advanced residency in Orthodontics in San Antonio, Texas. While in orthodontic residency, my initial interest in orthodontics was cemented and my passion for working with children was confirmed. I also was able to participate in research using cone beam CT scan technology and orthognathic surgical techniques. After 10 years of serving our fine men and women of the United States military in America and Europe, my family and I decided to enter civilian life, return to Texas, and continue serving children and families in the North Austin, Round Rock, and Cedar Park communities.
My wife, Allyson and I, and my two teenage children are active members of the community, we are dedicated to many of Austins non-profit organizations, school associations, sports teams, and overseas missions.
