He graduated from Texas A&M University with a degree in Chemistry followed by attending dental school at the University of Texas Health Science Center, San Antonio. After graduating in 1990, he commissioned into the U. S. Navy and served as a general dentist until 1997. He then proceeded to complete his orthodontic training at Indiana University School of Dentistry followed by continuing his Navy career as an orthodontist.

After 26 years of honorable service, he retired from the Navy and accepted an appointment at UT Health San Antonio as the Pre-Doctoral Director of Orthodontics.
