I was born in Chicago, IL and grew up playing baseball (Cubs fan!) and have an older sister who is also a dentist. I attended Purdue University for undergrad and graduted Southern Illinois University - School of Dental Medicine in 2001. In 2006, I started Blue Springs Family Dentistry in Troy, IL. I am happily married with 3 wonderful boys. Besides taking care of my patients, I really enjoy travel, spending time with my family, and cooking!
