For more than 15 years, I have been providing the best possible orthodontic care to my patients with a warm, personal approach. I value the relationships I am able to build with my patients of all ages and hope that each of them enjoys their experience in our office as much as we do.

My love of orthodontics goes way back. After earning my bachelor's degree in biology at the State University of New York at Binghamton, I went on to complete my Doctorate of Dental Surgery at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. A year of hospital residency and two years of dentistry later, I had mastered all facets of the dental profession and had come to realize my true passion, the creation of straight, stunningly beautiful smiles! It was this passion for smile-transformation that prompted me to return to the State University of New York at Stony Brook to specialize in orthodontics. Formal education complete, I began my practice in South Park while committing myself to an ongoing regimen of continuing education in order to stay abreast of ever-evolving procedures and technology in orthodontics.

I understand the importance of family, and as much as I love orthodontics my family always comes first. Whether golfing, running, relaxing with my wife, Kelly, at our home in Charlotte, boating with my girls, Hailey and Brooke, or marveling at Mulligan's mini-doodle energy, I love it all!
