Helping people have their very best smile has always been my goal and passion as a dentist. Working for wonderful patients with a caring, professional staff makes coming to work fun. Even after many years of dentistry, it is still exciting.

Education

I graduated from Brigham Young University with a Bachelor of Science degree before continuing on to Northwestern University Dental School where I received my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree.

Continuing Education

I spend several weekends every year at continuing education meetings updating my dental skills. In the last few years, my concentration has been cosmetic and implant dentistry. My patients deserve the most up-to-date treatment available, and CE is the only way to make it happen.

Outside the Office

I am a native of Utah and have lived in Steilacoom for the past 31 years. My wife's name is Linda and we have five children and nine grandchildren. I'm actively involved with my church which keeps me busy most of the time but I enjoy travel and a good book when I find some spare time.
