Prior to opening this practice, I served in the Navy as the Endodontics Department Head at the Washington Navy Yard. In this capacity, I provided root canal therapy and surgical endodontic treatment for military members throughout the Washington, DC area. In addition, our practice provided emergency care to the U.S. Congress. I also taught endodontic diagnosis and treatment to general practice residents from the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, MD.

I completed my residency training at the University of Florida in 2002, and earned my DDS degree from the University of Maryland, BCDS in 2000.

I am a specialist member of the American Association of Endodontists, and a member of the ADA. I have served as president of the Penick Endodontic Study Club. I’m also a member of the Anne Arundel County Dental Society and the Maryland State Dental Society.

I graduated from Bucknell University in 1990, where I earned a bachelors degree and played lacrosse.

I am an avid sailor, and love being around the water and the Chesapeake Bay in particular. My wife, Jennifer, and I have two children, and we have decided to make Anne Arundel County our home.
