2020

I spent the first year after my residency working as an independent contractor in corporate dentistry. It was a tremendous opportunity being able to learn the business of orthodontics without the responsibility of ownership. As time went on, though, I began to realize the value of team culture and the key factors that influence new patient conversion. If I were to achieve my ultimate goals, I needed to take on the high risk of building an orthodontic practice from scratch. In 2013, I opened my office and began to experience what I consider to be the rewarding result of one of the most significant decisions I have ever made.
