As a member of the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners, I am humbled and honored to have been singled out for my clinical skill and ethics by colleagues to the point that our Governor appointed me to this position. It can be a strain of time away from family, but it is very rewarding to know the impact I have protecting the citizens of Arizona.

Another thing I am proud of is staying an independent dentist. The financial pressure to be bought up in todays dental climate is intense. That is why you see so many random names of dental practices. The reason I put my name on the sign, business cards and front door is because you are dealing with me on a one on one basis, no corporate structure that Im hiding behind.
