I enjoy spending time with my family, skiing, kiteboarding, mountain biking, playing hockey, golfing, racket sports, reading and woodworking.
I feel so fortunate to be a dentist today. Treating patients over the last 30 years has been a very exciting and fulfilling time. The combination of research and technological advances has led to tremendous improvements in diagnosis and treatment. Beautiful, natural, and durable dentistry can now be delivered with ease, speed, and comfort. It allows us time to develop trusting, personal relationships with our patients.

I enjoy reading, Pilates, Barre, hiking, and traveling.
I have been practicing dentistry since 1995. I first joined Meadow Place Dental on a part-time basis in 2005 as I was starting my family. My three children are now in college and high school, and I am now a full-time partner here at the practice. Although the past 15 years have brought many changes to my family, the dental profession, and the world, my commitment to conscientious and compassionate care remains strong. I continue to be grateful for the trust of my patients and the support of our amazing team as we provide esthetic and functional treatment.

I enjoy spending time with my wife, Tia, our newborn twins Ben and Ivy, and our German shorthaired pointer, Ella. I love staying active by playing golf and hockey.
Upon graduating from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in 2018 I felt well prepared to move directly into private practice, and yet, I expanded my dental education by attending a residency program. The General Practice Residency at St. Francis Hospital in Hartford, CT provided me invaluable experience in diagnostics and emergency treatment including endodontics, surgery and many other aspects of general dentistry. I have a passion for learning and perfecting the most up-to-date techniques and practices that the ever-changing field of dentistry has to offer. At Meadow Place Dental, I have been thrilled to find several dentists with a similar philosophy. We are constantly exploring and discussing ways to provide more comfortable, esthetic and long-lasting dental care. I look forward to building a trusting relationship with my patients for many years to come.
