Personal Biography
I grew up in Holmdel, NJ about 10 minutes away from the closest beach. Growing up there was perfect. I loved going to the beach, the shore points, and to all the parks in Monmouth County. I am a very ambitious and social guy, but oddly enough I’m also very easy going and enjoy spending time alone watching movies or reading the news. I am very critical of details and confirming that a job is done well, and I always strive to make sure I’ve accomplished something positive. I have wanted to become a dentist since I was probably in elementary school but I didn’t decide to actually apply until I was well into my college career!
I went to college at Long Island University in Brooklyn, NY where I had an amazing time, maybe a bit too much fun, traveling around New York City and exploring all the incredible things only NYC has to offer. After a brief hiatus to a college back in Jersey, I explored what I really wanted to do and that exploration brought me back to LIU to finish my degree; a B.S. in Biology. I always knew that working with my hands and working in healthcare was right for me. That’s why dentistry was the perfect fit. I applied to a lot of dental schools because I wanted to make sure I would have a chance to bring my positive, no worries beach-kid personality into the world of Dentistry!
I chose Temple Dental because of their great clinical reputation and strong academics. Philadelphia was also a deciding factor, and it was another amazing city to live in. I feel incredibly lucky that I had a chance to explore and experience such a unique and historic place. I had a wonderful time living in Philly; soaking up vast amounts of culture, food, history, fun, and dental knowledge of course! I ate a ton of cheese steaks, made meaningful friendships, built a sturdy foundation of knowledge for the rest of my career, and had some of the best times of my life.
Now, I am immensely excited to be back home! I look forward to living and becoming an integral part of the community in my home state. I can’t wait to meet all of you potential new patients out there so we can start building those bonds that help make working in healthcare so excellent and rewarding!

What others are saying about The Smilist Dental
“What a great experience! Everyone who works here is kind and caring. They take the time to explain what’s going on. They’re friendly. They make you feel taken care of. I couldn’t be happier with my experience, and I normally hate going to the dentist.”
