Dr. Smith realized his passion for dentistry in his younger years when he earned his dentistry merit badge and then later when participating in a medical mission trip to Guatemala. Before completing his undergrad at Brigham Young University he served a mission for his church in Guatemala where he became fluent in Spanish. He grew up most of his life in California but moved to Texas where he graduated from the University of Texas Dental School with an honor for Excellence in Clinical Dentistry. While at dental school he met and fell in love with his wife Jamie who was attending Dental Hygiene school at the time.
While preparing to move to Kingwood, Dr. Smith worked as an associate in San Antonio for over 3 years. During that time he realized the most rewarding part of dentistry was when he could bring smiles to his patients. He also tries to find time to bring smiles to others by volunteering at schools, going on mission trips, participating in dental health projects and any other way he can contribute and give back to the community. In his personal time he enjoys hunting, fishing, golfing and especially spending quality time with his wife Jamie and his two little boys Eric and Owen.
