Hobbies:
I love spending time with my family, teaching my kids new things, and helping them to experience the world around them.  But when I’ve got a bit of time to myself, I enjoy working on scale models, 3D printing, both working on the printers themselves, and designing/making prints to use in a variety of applications.  I also enjoy being outdoors, running and hiking, and snowboarding during the winter time.  

What attracted you to CVCH?
While at Loma Linda University I was taught their motto “To make man whole”.  While dentistry is an important aspect to a person's health, it is only one aspect to it.  I’m drawn to CVCHs integration of all the different health aspects that people face.  While in school I had the opportunity to work with a largely medically underserved population, and since leaving school and working in the “real world” I’ve wanted to return to doing just that.  CVCH provides an excellent opportunity to do just that, and work closely with other medical professionals to cover an individual's whole health.
