The Person Behind "the Doctor" ...

     My dental practice is only one of several ways I work to express "I care". My relationships with my family, friends and church reflect an ongoing commitment of support. In my practice this is demonstrated by being accessible to my patients and staff in times of need. In return, my faith grows that love "comes around". In times such as these, this is no small solace.

     My wife Bonnie and daughters Michelle and Alicia help keep family activities an integral part of being a "Dad". My family enjoys trips to the beach, skiing "out West" and Carolina basketball and ice hockey. As an "empty nest" parent, I recall gratefully many proud moments - rewards for taking an active part in my children's activities. Fitness walking remains a daily routine for Bonnie and me - a great time for us to be together.

     I volunteer for the annual North Carolina State Games in figure skating. I also perform in the annual holiday production of "Nutcracker on Ice" at the Triangle SportsPlex, another family affair. I'm also a musician active in community service. I have played jazz, blues and rock venues around the Triangle for years. Check out the Dr's Music Events page for upcoming events.
