I have been married to my wife, Tina , a graduate of University of Oregon who is our practice administrator. My older daughter , Ariana, is a graduate of Boston College and University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry and joined me in practice in 2007. My younger daughter, Elena is a recent graduate of Santa Clara University and is assisting in our practice. Our practice philosophy is one of prevention of disease and therapeutic and restorative treatment to help patients achieve optimal health. I enjoy running, playing guitar and percussions.
