Born as the third of four children, he was raised in Chicago’s western suburbs. A graduate of Marmion Academy, Dr. Clark continued his education at the University of Colorado in Boulder studying molecular biology and biochemistry. After graduating college, Dr. Clark taught high school biology and coached football for a few years prior to starting dental studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry. Completion of orthodontic residency at the University of Rochester-Eastman Dental Center in Rochester, NY and a fellowship in craniofacial orthodontics at the University of Illinois Medical Center in Chicago provided extensive training in orthodontics, facial growth and craniofacial dysmorphology. These experiences provided the foundation for becoming a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics in 2007 and recently in renewal of Dr. Clark’s board certified status in 2014.
