Doctor
Education
I earned my Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) School of Dentistry and my bachelor’s degree from Brigham Young University. I have received advanced training at the Las Vegas Institute and the Academy of General Dentistry and am a graduate of the esteemed Gordon J. Christensen Mentorship Program (100+ CE units).
Certifications
I have developed an expertise in endodontics, oral medicine, implantology, cosmetic dentistry and teeth alignment through Invisalign, for which I have a certification. I am devoted to lifelong learning and routinely complete over 100+ units of continuing education (CE) annually greatly exceeding the minimum requirement of 17 CE credits. In addition, I maintain membership in several organizations and associations including: American Dental Association (ADA), Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), International Association of Comprehensive Aesthetics (IACA), Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies (LVI). American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID), Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation (DOCS)
Languages
While in college, I studied abroad and lived in Venezuela and the Caribbean where I learned to speak fluent Spanish.
Hobbies
Born and raised in the South Bay, I believe that California is a special, wonderful place to live and practice. I enjoy traveling, backpacking, attending sporting events and spending time with family and friends. I'm also an avid outdoor enthusiast who loves golfing, swimming, surfing, and exploring the Bay Area.
Education
I attended University of California, Los Angeles for eight years where I earned my bachelor’s degree and a degree in Doctor of Dental Surgery. Afterwards, I attended a General Practice Residency at University of California, San Francisco for further training in General Dentistry.
Philosophy
I am currently an active member of the California Dental Association and the Santa Clara Dental Society. I continue to stay involved with dental education through Spear Education and other CE courses. I have also been involved with CDA Cares in Fresno, Give Kids a Smile, and joined Flying Samaritans as a volunteer dentist.
Languages
I began studying Spanish in seventh grade and continued throughout high school, college, and during an immersion program in Barcelona, Spain. I can also speak both Mandarin and Cantonese.
Hobbies
I was born and raised in California, and love the variety of activities California has to offer. I enjoy outdoor activities, hiking, snowboarding, and running. I also love to travel and explore new places with friends and family.
Education:
I earned my Doctorate of Dental Medicine from the University of Nevada Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2015. I earned my Bachelor’s of Science degree in Human Biology from the University of California in Merced. I have been practicing dentistry for 4 years.
Philosophy:
One of my favorite aspects of dentistry is the amount of intricate detail and fine motor skills involved in bringing a tooth to health. I know that for most people, going to the dentist can be an anxiety-filled, stressful event. My goal is to provide a space of transparency and comfort to all of my patients. I strive to not only provide quality care but to provide an atmosphere of dialogue and understanding when it comes to each patient’s individual oral health.
Certifications and Memberships:
Like most professional fields, dentistry is constantly expanding and new techniques are always being developed. I enjoy taking continuing education courses to become a better-rounded clinician and to gain more experience in the various aspects of dentistry. I am a member of the ADA and CDA.
Languages:
English and Spanish
Hobbies:
I spend most of my free time traveling with my wife, Adriana, and our two extremely spoiled maltipoos- Coconut and Pumpkin. Our favorite place, so far, has been Iceland. When we’re not traveling, most of my time is spent being forced to give belly rubs to my two dogs (they can be very convincing), working out, reading, and exploring the vast offering of restaurants that the Bay Area has to offer.
