Meet Dr. Brad

Orthodontic treatment had a huge impact on my self-confidence and demeanor as a teenager. Having the opportunity to give that gift to someone else is incredibly fulfilling and makes me excited each day to provide care for our patients.

I was born and raised in Honolulu and am thrilled to return home after many years of school on the mainland. During undergrad, my experience working as an orthodontic assistant sparked my passion for orthodontics. I moved to the Midwest in 2012, where I completed both dental school and my orthodontic residency at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.

I can’t tell you how happy I am to finally be home and out of the cold weather! I’m grateful to be a part of such an amazing team at Holliday Orthodontics and for the opportunity to create beautiful, confident smiles. After all, everyone deserves to have a smile they are proud of!

OUTSIDE THE OFFICE

I’m an avid eater and novice cook — but I love basically anything to do with food. If I’m not eating, you may find me scrolling through Yelp!, looking for the next restaurant to try with friends. I’m also passionate about helping the underserved. I was fortunate enough to serve on a dental mission trip to Guatemala in 2016 and hope to be able to attend more in the future!
