Strictly Orthodontics

As part of my resume package, I wanted to include something strictly for for orthodontists, practice owners, lab owners, and suppliers.

With over 30 years experience in the industry, I was a lab owner and founder of national association to help other labs and practices adapt to the neww technology. In collaboration with graphic artists and designers, I created B2B and B2C materials.

I utilized social media and became one a priemier contributor on Quorum to answer questions by patients, sticking to my expertise and referring when it was beyond it. A long time time ago, I learned it is important to know what you know but even more important to know what you don’t.

Orthodontic Resource Group

I launched the original non-profit, The Association of Orthodontic Professionals (AOLP) in 2017 but it was later renamed. I supplied much of the original copy, collaborated with BTC Marketing for the collateral materials, and produced the original conference programs as well as zero issue for a quarterly magazine.

Consulting

When the technological tsunami swamped my industry, I began writing blog posts. I reached out to other labs, practices and companies to help them make the transition.

Journal of Day to Day Orthodontics

AOLP Conference Program

This is not my best work but I am proud of it. Two weeks before the conference, we had three sponsors and a four page program. By the day of the conference, we had 11 sponsors and a 36-page magazine.

While working 12 hour days at my lab and preparing for the conference, I wrote all of the copy for the magzine.

Journal of Dental Technology

2020 Hot List. I was honored to be named “The Educator.”

Which led to the inevitable joke: “Who’s your hottie now?”

The Digital Lab Guy

My first foray into YouTube and videos. The training manuals that came with the new technology were awful. They did not teach anything. I began making simple videos for other labs and my clients to help ease them into the new digital world.

In 2015, I was invited by the Dental Laboratory Association of Texas (DLAT) to present a two hour lecture on the advances in orthodontic laboratories. This is the video of the lecture. The transcript can be found in the AOLP Conference Program above.
