Ryan grew up in Sandy, Utah, and lived most of his life in the state. He attended Brigham Young University where he earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology. He completed his first year of dental school at the University of Utah, then moved to Omaha, Nebraska and completed his degree at Creighton University.
Ryan stayed in Nebraska and completed his specialty training at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. After completing training, he worked in Texas for a while before landing back in Utah. Ryan has always liked working with his hands and finds himself doing everything from playing the piano or drawing to baking, laying tile, and woodworking. When he’s not working, Ryan spends his time with his wife, Kim, their six kids, and their two dogs, who have taught him some of life’s most important lessons, those of patience, love, and loyalty. Ryan also has a soft spot for DIY projects, and he brings that love and talent for renovations to your kids’ dental hygiene.
