I was born and raised in Geelong, the oldest of three children. My parents were both teachers.

Upon gaining a place at Melbourne University to study Dentistry, I moved to Melbourne. After graduating, I worked part time in several dental practices, before buying my first practice in Pakenham.

Just a few years later, in 1988, I set up my current practice in Rowville in what was at that time known as Parkridge Medical Centre.

In 2006 the doctors relocated, and we became Parkridge Dental. With the support and assistance of my wife Julie, we grew and expanded Parkridge Dental into what it is today.

In 2016, my wife and I moved to the Mornington Peninsula which we love. 

This has allowed us to better enjoy our passion for sailing and enabled me to become an active member of the Australian Volunteer Coastguard.
We enjoy our large grown-up family of five children, as well as our newest family member, our little grandson.

I feel privileged to have been able to provide my dental services to the Rowville and surrounding communities for the past 35 years. It has been a pleasure to get to know many families over several generations and I look forward to continuing that association in the coming years.
