I attended the University of the Pacific in Stockton for my undergraduate degree (BA Biology) and the UOP's School of Dentistry in SF for my dental degree, graduating in 1974.  I entered a general private practice in the City of Alameda upon graduating.  In 1989, I was appointed by the Alameda County Board of Supervisors to Alameda County's first AIDS Advisory Commission, serving for two years. I am a Past-President of ACDS and one of the Delegates from ACDS to CDA's House of Delegates.  I am currently serving as the Treasurer of ACDS.  I am practicing in the same practice and location as when I graduated, fifty years ago.  I have one wonderful wife, Felicia.  My main hobbies are auto racing and downhill skiing.
