There is nothing more rewarding than seeing someone smile confidently after a treatment well done. My work is life-changing, and I love helping people come out of their shell. My goal is to help all our patients achieve such beautiful, healthy smiles that they cannot help but to confidently show their new attractive teeth to the world. I would like to stress how fortunate I am to have such wonderful and talented coworkers and a great team.

I practiced in Portland, Oregon, and have had the opportunity to work in a number of wonderful orthodontic offices since then. Here at Helena Orthodontics, I use my skill and experiences to bring the highest quality orthodontic care to my patients.

I am always interested in furthering my education, and I attend many local and national meetings to do so. My goal is to find the best combination of cutting-edge technology and tried and true techniques so that I can provide the highest level of orthodontics. I also attend numerous continuing education courses and am involved with many professional organizations, including:

I love helping others in the office and outside of it. I feel very fortunate and thankful to my community because they make my job and life possible and so very rewarding. For this reason, I am always happy to give back. I do free dental screenings at local schools and take part in a fundraiser called Bowl for Kids' Sake. I also donate or volunteer to help at many other activities, like the Special Olympics, Grandstreet Theatre, Exploration Works, Florence Crittenton Home, head start programs, and Big Brothers & Big Sisters.

I grew up in Helena and consider it a great honor to return to my hometown. I live with my beautiful wife, Charissa, and our two boys, Chase and Caden. We also have twodogs named Jackson and Jorgia. I love playing most sports, hikingand spending time with the family, especially outdoors. I am a Bobcat football fan for life, but I also root for the Oregon Ducks whenever I can.

I truly enjoy each and every day I spend in the office working as an orthodontist. It is a joy to get to know the patients while helping them create a beautiful and healthy smile. I feel exceptionally lucky to have joined Dr. Foster and the great team at Helena Orthodontics and to be living back in my hometown of Helena.

After completing my education, I practiced in the Nashville, TN area for nearly four years before moving back to Helena to join Dr. Foster and the team at Helena Orthodontics. During my time in Nashville I was fortunate to work with some great orthodontists and to be exposed to a wide variety of cases and treatment modalities that help me provide the highest quality of treatment for all of our patients.

I strive to be a life-long learner and am always striving to learn about the newest and best treatment options for our patients. In 2018 I took the extra steps to show my commitment to excellence in Orthodontics and became Board Certified by the American Board of Orthodontics. I regularly attend continuing education courses and am involved in many professional organizations including:

I feel it is important to give back to the community you live in and I look forward to be more involved in the Helena community as I get settled in. Over the years, I have been involved with the Helena Education Foundation, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and I have participated in two dental mission trips.

While I am thankful for my time and experiences in Bozeman, San Francisco, and Nashville, I couldnt be more excited to be back in my hometown of Helena. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, enjoying the outdoors including hiking, boating, and skiing. I also like to play tennis and golf as well as pottery.
