Currently I am excited to be involved with the Reno Adopt-A-Vet program. Where I am able to give needed dental care to our local veterans. Since my youth, I have been actively involved in helping others.
I was raised in a family where service was a number one priority. For instance, my family helped build a neighborhood park that has become a place of relaxation and fun for families for over twenty five years. Also, as an Eagle Scout, I had many opportunities to serve my community. I led a book drive for troops stationed in Iraq, collecting hundreds of books.
My love for service was further ignited when I spent two years in the impoverished city of Tijuana, Mexico. There, I learned to love the people, became fluent in Spanish, but most importantly, relearned the importance of people over things.
Through this experience I committed to giving back whenever I can. I have realized part of this desire through my active involvement in Flying Doctors and Share a Smile – two organizations that give back through the field of dentistry.
I am happy to be settled in Reno, Nevada, with my wife and four children. It has been my dream to operate my own practice, centered around treating people with Compassion, Comfort and Expertise in a place I am proud to call home.
After visiting numerous locations, my wife and I fell in love with the mountains, nearby skiing, local hiking and the good people of Reno. We enjoy most things outdoors, but in particular, I love golfing, hiking, snow skiing, playing racquetball, and geocaching.
On most weekends I can be found exploring the area with my kids who range in age from two to seven or enjoying date night with my wife Stephanie.
