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.
When not continuing my dental education with many of the worlds leading practitioners and lecturers I like to spend time with my family.  I enjoy skiing, kiteboarding, mountain biking, hockey, golf, racket sports, reading and woodworking.

I have been practicing dentistry for eleven years and recently joined Meadow Place Dental on a part-time basis in May 2005.  As my three children grow, I look forward to establishing a full-time presence here.  Dentistry is such a rewarding profession and I feel truly privileged to help patients improve both their function and aesthetics in such a caring, start-of-the-art practice.  I enjoy the variety afforded by general dentistry, including the treatment of pediatric patients.  When free from balancing my career and family, I like reading, interior decorating, and travel.
