I happily provide orthodontic care to patients in the Northwest suburbs of Atlanta Georgia and have been since 1990. A Magna Cum Laude graduate from the University of Georgia, I received my dental degree from the Medical College of Georgia, and received my certificate in orthodontics and master's degree from Baylor College of Dentistry at Baylor University. My wife, Vicki, and I have three wonderful children, along with two daughter-in-laws, and two grandchildren. In my spare time, I enjoy raising and training Quarter horses and participating in other outdoor activities. The biggest highlight of my professional life is something that I get to experience practically every day. It's seeing the expressions of joy and excitement that comes over someone after their braces are removed, the reaction of their family members, and the changes that having an improved smile has on their life. The highlight of my personal life is each moment that I spend with my grandkids. Each one is so special in its own way. There is nothing I'd rather be doing.I'm pleased to say that I'm also the founder and Academic Director of Trapezio, which provides formal training for orthodontic staff members and is endorsed by the American Association of Orthodontists. As the program creator, I am frequently invited to speak at professional meetings around the country and overseas. I also proudly serve on the AAO Council on Technology.
