My passion for dentistry began at an early age. With an initial interest in medicine, the ability to artistically create smiles in dentistry was more appealing as a profession for me. I enhanced my clinical skills by serving in the United States Navy. My four years of service included working side-by-side with many dental specialists from universities across the globe. In 1994, I entered private practice by establishing Chelsea Family Dentistry.

I currently reside in Chelsea with my wife, Peggy, and our twin boys, Hunter and Landon. When I am not at the office, I enjoy participating in outdoor recreation and sporting activities with my family. I also enjoy motorsports and competitive auto racing.

I have been passionate about the dental field since I was a young child. Having had extensive dental work done myself, including seven years of orthodontic work, I realized how important a smile can be. I believe very strongly in providing patients with ethical care, as well as educating them on how to improve their oral health. I am passionate about providing services to the underserved community as well. I have attended three mission trips to the Dominican Republic, where my colleagues and I provided free dental care to people in need. During dental school, I volunteered at Bay Cliff Health Camp in the Upper Peninsula, where I received an award for outstanding care involving special needs patients. Being a dentist has been a lifelong dream of mine, and I am very blessed to be serving in this community.

I spend most of my free time with my loving family, friends, fianc and our dog. I love to watch movies, do puzzles, read books, do yoga and spend as much time outside as possible. I absolutely love to travel, and I even lived in Germany for three and a half years when I was younger.

After nearly getting my front tooth knocked out from a softball accident in high school, I quickly learned how much a smile can impact a life. Since then, I directed my time and motivation towards becoming a dentist. I believe all great dentistry begins with communication and understanding between me and my patients. I strive to meet my patients needs as well educating each individual on proper oral health.

Growing up in Manchester gave me a great appreciation for small towns. After finishing my schooling, I wanted to come back to this area. I have recently become a permanent resident in Chelsea with my husband, Josh. I have truly enjoyed all this community has to offer, from the farmers markets to the local shops. Out of the office, I spend my time reading, walking downtown and through the local trails, and visiting with friends and family.

I graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Arts degree, double majoring in Communications and Screen Arts & Cultures. After spending several years working on the sets of feature films, I longed to do something more purposeful with my life. After careful consideration and a passion for arts and sciences, I decided to pursue dentistry and havent looked back since! Dentistry has been more rewarding than I could have ever imagined. While studying at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry, I co-founded the Dental Students for Sustainability Club and was actively involved in the American Student Dental Association and the Alpha Omega International Dental Society.

As a dentist, I aim to provide outstanding treatment and make you feel comfortable in the process. Patient education is very important to me and my goal is to help you make the best decisions for your oral health using the best evidence and information available.

I am a proud Michigan native and attended the University of Michigan for all of my formal education. When I am not at the office, I enjoy hiking, traveling, cooking, entertaining friends and family, and spending time with my husband, Joe.

I graduated in 1993 from the University of Michigan, earning a bachelors degree in dental hygiene. I joined Chelsea Family Dentistry in 1994 shortly after Dr. Napieralski purchased the practice. Here at Chelsea Family Dentistry, we strive to have a family-friendly office with state-of-the-art technology. It is all of the wonderful patients in this practice that makes my job so rewarding. Patient care is top priority.

I have been married to my husband, Kurt, since 1993. I enjoy traveling, reading books, making jewelry and exercising. My most recent accomplishment, in both 2009 and 2012, is that I completed the Detroit Free Press half-marathon with my close friends and family.

I moved to the Chelsea area from Charlotte, North Carolina. I have had a passion for dentistry my whole life due to being raised in a dental family. I graduated from Cape Fear Community College in 2005 with my dental assisting degree. I had the pleasure of assisting my father, and I gained extensive experience and knowledge in dentistry. I am so happy and blessed to be a team member of such an amazing dental practice.

I have been with Chelsea Family Dentistry for over two decades. I graduated from Lansing Community College in 1994 with an associate degree in dental hygiene. My focus as a hygienist here at Chelsea Family Dentistry is to help each patient achieve optimum oral health. This is achieved by performing professional dental cleanings, aiding in tooth brushing and flossing techniques, evaluating periodontal health and dispensing products to help each patient maintain the best oral health at home.
