Modern Smiles Dental with Dr. Ali
Finding radiant smiles and dental health with Dr. Ali Forghani
After three decades of traveling the world, I decided to attempt to become a member of The Century Club by visiting 100 countries or more. As an ex-Marine, former professional baseball player and commercial broadcaster, I have had many rewarding experiences during my life.
None of those however, has been as meaningful and life-altering as my journeys around the globe. I'm a dreamer. Travel has been an on-going metamorphosis that has allowed me to evolve into the person I am today. It is a passion that has been a journey of discovery influenced by people, places and events that have increased my cultural awareness, knowledge and understanding of the global community in which we live.
