Constantly learning and growing are a huge part of my values and I’m fortunate that dentistry is an ever-evolving profession. I was fortunate to have a progressive mentor through dental school and was able to begin my career at his practice in Boulder. That is where I was first introduced to Cerec (same-day crown) technology as well as laser dentistry.I immediately learned as much as I could about Cerec and was asked to join the CerecDoctors.com Mentor group in 2012 and Visiting Faculty in 2016. In 2016, I also became a Cerec Trainer for Patterson Dental and traveled around the Western Slope training new Cerec owners on their technology.My primary goal has always been to improve the patient experience and for me that means listening to patient concerns, educating them on prevention and treatment, and creating an efficient and comfortable appointment. With the Cerec, 3D Xrays, and Laser technology, I am able to make your appointment personalized, comfortable and easy.I am excited to be putting down roots in the Gunnison Valley community. My first visit to Crested Butte was when I was 15 years old and visiting a friend at Western State College. I immediately felt how special this place is and almost cannot believe that the dream of living here has become a reality. I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin and attended University of Wisconsin Madison for undergrad. Afterward, I went to Boston University where I graduated Cum Laude from dental school (and met Chelsea). It feels like it’s been a long road to get to this point; however, at the same time it feels like everything is just beginning. Chelsea and I are so fortunate to raise our children here and serve such a wonderful community of people.
