Employment History
Lighthouse Practice Management Group - Founder

2002 - 2014

Lighthouse was created with my partners Joel Kozikowski and Brian Smith to provide services initially
to offices using PracticeWorks software and then expanded to serve all dental offices – Primarily US
based but with international locations as well. The best practices and techniques of starting and
running an all-digital / chartless practice became the foundation for serving the dental community.
Via ongoing seminars, on-site consultations and a premium content website – we assisted thousands
of offices to embrace new technology and learn to operate with greater effectiveness and
efficiency. Creating Lighthouse 360 (SaaS delivery) expanded our ability to address 100% of the U. S.
market in addition to other countries.

At time of sale (March 2013) Lighthouse had 2,000 active

clients (no contracts – all month to month) and over 30 employees. 12 months after the sale
Lighthouse had increased to over 4,000 active clients (part of the earn out period – still under my
direction) and at the time of my departure there were 7,000 active clients.
North Gwinnett Dental Care - Founder

1994 - Present

Assisted my wife in opening her dream dental practice from scratch in 1994 while still professionally
employed in the software industry. Knowing that technology could be applied in a manner different
than most practices embraced at the time – the office was started with chair side charting,
computerized appointment handling and digital radiology. Committed full time to the office in June
of 1996 to focus on understanding and improving the practice as well as hosting other offices that
visited us or had me go to them in order to replicate our solutions.
Software AG of North America

1987 - 1996

Systems Engineer supporting regional sales Account Executives and quickly transitioning to a national
resource then international resource based on technical knowledge and ability to engage with
potential clients and existing customers facing challenges that local resources could not properly
address. Product Management became my focus and secured a mission critical Cooperative
Marketing Partnership (CMP) with Digital Equipment Corp. Awarded Systems Engineer of the Year
during my first 9 months and awarded the President’s Award.

eliminated and all carriers were required to perform their own billing. Expertise with the DEC
VAX/VMS product line as well as Honeywell mainframe and mini systems.

Education
Bachelor of Science in Business Administration – Brenau University 1986
Attended college courses between my junior and senior year of high school to learn Fortran

intended to finish math degree at Georgia Institute of Technology – but was unable to while working
full time during the day (they did not offer the classes needed at night). CONTEL had an agreement
with Brenau who came in and taught classes at the CONTEL location and at local satellite
classrooms, allowing completion of BS in Business Administration with honors while working fulltime.
