Get to know them

• “As a little kid, I loved the sport of hockey. Seeing NHL players missing front teeth made me want to be a dentist for a professional hockey team. Though that is still a fun idea, I prefer serving El Dorado and all of the surrounding communities. I’m much less likely to get hit with a flying puck or a high stick!”
• “Traveling is something that I really enjoy. Whether it be 30 minutes away to eat at a small restaurant or a cross-country road trip, I am happy to explore, see different things and try new foods. My favorite place to go is somewhere I haven’t been before!”
• “Besides dentistry, my biggest passion is following the Nebraska Cornhuskers (please don’t hold that against me— it is a problem I was born into). I travel to every home football game and try to make it to at least one away game.”
• “I was once a ski school instructor in Keystone, Colorado. I love to ski, snowboard and just spend time in the mountains.”
• “People would be surprised to know that I love working on cars. I always need some sort of project, so I try to find something to keep me busy— especially outside of football season.”
