Meet Our Dentists in Kelowna
Our dentists understand that you, or your child, may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to your needs, and it is our goal to make you feel comfortable visiting our practice while providing you with the best care possible.
I see dentistry as a wonderful blend of art and science. I love working with my hands and interacting with people.
My daily satisfaction comes from knowing that I have done everything I can to create a high quality, long-lasting restoration. I enjoy seeing the work I do directly improve the quality of life of others. I truly appreciate the trust that my patients have placed in me to improve their oral health.
I see each of my patients as a unique individual. Many of them have fascinating jobs, varied interests, and live meaningful and interesting lives. I love when my patients share stories, ideas, and laughs with me and my team! We become a part of their lives in the same way they become a part of ours.
Education and Continuing Education
Becoming a dentist required years of dedication and commitment to education.
- Bachelor of Arts in Psychology – University of Regina, 1997
- Doctor of Dental Medicine – University of Saskatchewan, 2003
As dentistry evolves, I continuously strive to stay on the cutting edge of dental technology by offering many of dentistry’s most exciting new advancements. I also passionately engage in ongoing education to further increase my knowledge and practical skills for the benefit of my patients. I spend many hours a year participating in continuing education courses across Canada and the United States. I am committed to providing the highest quality of dental care by remaining current in this ever-changing profession.
Outside the Office
I am originally from Regina, Saskatchewan, and moved to Kelowna, British Columbia, because I love the water. My wife, Becky, and I have a daughter named Raevyn, and a son named Indy. When I’m not spending time with my family, I can be found playing the guitar, wakeboarding, or snowboarding.
I am committed to providing patients with comprehensive oral health care and making sure that patients feel informed and comfortable with the dental care they receive.
Originally from Richmond B.C., I completed my dental education at UBC in Vancouver in 2008.
Following that I entered and completed a one year General Practice Residency (GPR) at the University of Alberta in Edmonton before entering into private practice.
Since returning to B.C. in 2012, I have been fortunate enough to call Kelowna home. I am committed to providing patients with comprehensive oral health care and making sure that patients feel informed and comfortable with the dental care they receive. When it comes to dentistry, I am always interested in learning. I attend a variety of dental education courses to continually grow my clinical knowledge and skills.

Outside the Office
When not practicing dentistry, I can be found spending time with my husband and our 3 young children (two girls and one boy), enjoying all that the beautiful Okanagan has to offer.
I believe oral health is important for overall health, and I’m grateful to work with my patients to help them reach their goals.
I’m from Saskatoon. I practiced in my hometown for about 8 years after finishing my dental education at the University of Saskatchewan College of Dentistry. Before that, I spent time at Limestone College in South Carolina, where I also played lacrosse. In 2023, I moved to the Okanagan and joined the team at Discover Dental. I like to learn and embrace new technologies in dentistry and in life. I believe oral health is important for overall health, and I’m grateful to work with my patients to help them reach their goals.
