Dr. Jason grew up in Clear Lake, Iowa. His aspirations to pursue a career in dentistry came at a young age while undergoing orthodontic treatment. Dr. Jason received his Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of Northern Iowa and his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry, where his passion for working with children first began.
Upon completion of his DDS, he worked with children and patients with special needs in Washington state for three years. With aspirations to expand his knowledge and become a board-certified pediatric dentist, Dr. Jason applied and was accepted into an Advanced Education in Pediatric Dentistry residency through NYU Langone Hospitals in Tucson, AZ.
Growing up, Dr. Jason was always adventurous, and could be found exploring the outdoors and playing sports. This continues to hold true and during his free time you can find him camping, cycling, skiing, and spending time with his two golden retrievers, Tula and Finn. His adventuresome personality has evoked a love for traveling the world and learning about different country’s cultures. Dr. Jason is excited to be back in the Midwest, where he will be closer to family and friends, and can enjoy the great outdoors that Minnesota has to offer.
Dr. Jason is board certified by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. He is a member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and is certified in Pediatric Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support.
Dr. Jason finds pediatric dentistry particularly rewarding. He loves improving and molding the future lives of children. His goal in a pediatric dental office is to create an experience that is both fun and memorable, while also providing the highest level of care to all his patients. He uses each positive visit to help build a lifelong foundation of greater oral health.
