He is married. His wife Dee has a daughter Jennifer from her first marriage and Jennifer has two girls, Mia and Joie and a son Isaac. He enjoys reading, history, current events and light fiction as well. He also follows the college teams from his Alma Mater, U of M Wolverines, and his home town San Diego State Aztecs. He tries to keep his garden growing and does some woodworking; however since the storage in the garage has overflow into the wood shop area there has not been too of that recently. Since graduating in 1984 the field of dentistry has changed amazingly. At my office we work very hard at evaluating the new procedures and products that come along and make sure that we incorporate those that will be most helpful to our patients without running after any new fads. We look forward to working with you to meet you oral health goals. We hope to see you soon.
