About Nick

I grew up in the small town of Oxford, PA, just an hour outside of Philadelphia. Surrounded by cornfields as far as the eye can see, I eventually made my way to the city to attend Temple University. During my undergrad years, I was quite the explorer—working in potato chip factories, chemistry labs, and even briefly pursuing an accounting major—before settling on biochemistry. Wanting to make a tangible difference in the lives of others, I decided to pursue dentistry. Before starting dental school, I spent a year as a full-time assistant working for several endodontists. I gained invaluable experience. Perhaps the most rewarding was getting to assist the doctor in treating my mom, who, unbeknownst to me, showed up in a tremendous amount of pain requiring emergency treatment. Since this and countless other patient experiences, I am firmly dedicated to becoming the best clinician I can be in hopes of honoring the privilege that it is to care for others. With that said, the journey to dental school is not an easy one. It's filled with countless hours spent studying, thousands of dollars spent applying to schools, and gray hairs that seem to grow out of nowhere. As a first-generation college student and the first in my family to pursue a career in healthcare, I’ve experienced firsthand how overwhelming and challenging this journey can be. But I also know it’s possible with a combination of determination, hard work, and the right support. I'm beyond grateful for all the support that I have been given over the years, and I hope to share that with you. I’ve had the privilege of working with students from all backgrounds, helping them excel in the classroom, crush the DAT, and gain admission to their dream dental schools. Now, as a student at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine, I’m more confident than ever that I can help you navigate your path, overcome obstacles, and achieve whatever goals you set for yourself. Let’s work together to make your dreams a reality!
