General Dentist · University of Iowa College of Dentistry, 2025
Dentistry is more than a career to me. I believe I was put here to serve others and every patient who walks through my door is an opportunity to do just that. Every day, I learn so much from my patients and the new people I meet from all walks of life. I treat every patient the way I'd want myself and my own family treated — with honesty, compassion, and excellence.
Growing up watching my dad love what he does while also providing excellent care to patients is what drove me towards the oral healthcare field. Now, I get to work alongside him!
I earned my BS in Human Physiology and Certificate in Entrepreneurial Management from the University of Iowa in 2021. I graduated from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry in 2025 with my Doctorate of Dental Surgery.
Spending time with the people I love reminds me why I work so hard. My wife Mikaela and I have an adorable daughter Adalene, a dog named Teddy, and a baby on the way. When I'm not in the office, you can find me golfing, watching sports, and spending time with family and friends.
A Fort Madison native, I am committed to giving back to the community that gave so much to me growing up. I am an active member of Harmony Bible Church, which fulfills my desire to genuinely care for people and carries into all patient interactions that I have.
