Summary

I am a detail-oriented professional with a passion for building strong patient-provider relationships through clear communication and a patient-centered approach. My diverse clinical experience has sharpened my leadership skills and shaped me into a collaborative team player who fosters a positive and supportive environment.

Outside the clinic, I’m an active person who stays fit by doing HIIT workouts, playing soccer, or going for hikes. I’m grateful to share my life with my wonderful wife, who is a dentist, and our two beautiful daughters. I’m always looking to challenge myself and push myself beyond my comfort zone, both personally and professionally, to continue growing and evolving.
