Benevis

Benevis is an integrated Dental Services Organization (DSO), headquartered in  Atlanta, GA that operates and supports 160 dental offices throughout the country. In 2002, our founding dentists envisioned a company that could provide needed dental care to often underserved communities (at selected locations), while helping dentists manage the day-to-day administrative burdens of operating a dental office. In 2004, we created our award-winning DentaPro dental practice management system for large groups. In 2019, we acquired DPMS, Inc. further expending our non-clinical support abilities. In 2014, we officially changed our name to Benevis to better reflect the company’s mission to improve access to dentistry by providing the highest quality non-clinical practices services to some of the nation’s leading dental practices.

All apply and all are a part of my journey.  The game of business is the challenge of a lifetime, but its one that keeps me coming back.

With a clear understanding that talent drives business, I've built a career leading and advising businesses on how to differentiate and win.

My current role is leading the HR function for Premier Roofing out of Denver, CO.  Backed by Aurora Capital, we're leading the market and rapidly growing.

As we continue to thrive and prosper, I'll share my learnings, mistakes and a fair share of random musings along the way.
