Meet Our Dentist

Being a dentist is my dream job. I feel blessed to have such a fulfilling career. Every day I look forward to being at work, and the challenges and rewards of the day ahead. I truly believe in my practice and my team. Together our goal is to become established within the community as a practice that is not only dedicated to improving and maintaining the oral health of our patients, but that is also dedicated to the environment. We are proud to be one of Seattle's first sustainable dental practices, providing complete care for family and the environment.

I was born in Israel, but my family and I moved to California when I was very young. I lived in San Jose until high school, when my family moved once again, this time to Colville, Washington. Living in so many different places has given me a unique perspective on the world, and while I am thankful that I've had such a diverse upbringing, I feel like Seattle is my true "hometown;" it's where I was always meant to settle down, and I am so happy to be home doing what I love.

When I'm not at the practice, I enjoy spending time at home with my wonderful girlfriend, Emily, who is a social worker helping homeless adults in the city. I am very proud of her achievements, and I support her in her career. We just welcomed a new addition to our family - our new puppy! He is an English Mastiff/Great Pyrenees mix, and once he's full-grown we think he'll probably weigh more than 150 pounds. To relax, I enjoy woodworking and carpentry, gardening, learning about space and astronomy, tinkering with tech gadgets, camping, and of course training and playing with our new dog!
