He makes it a priority to routinely attend continual education courses to stay current with dentistry's latest techniques and research. He is a member of the American Dental Association, the Florida Dental Association, the Central Florida District Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, and the Dental Society of Greater Orlando.
