He graduated from Milton High School and Tufts University playing basketball at both schools and captaining at Milton High.

In 1965 he received his D.D.S. from Dalhousie University in Halifax Nova Scotia and began a 50 year career as a General Dentist. His last several years were spent practicing in Sandwich with his daughters Colleen, as a dentist, and Kelly, as a dental hygienist.
