Steve Dadaian: Dentist by day, guitar shredder by night

Correction: the video misspells Mr. Dadaian's first name as "Steven." The correct spelling of his name is "Stephen Dadaian." Spectator regrets the error.

While he's not learning to fill cavities and clean incisors, Columbia Dental School student Steve Dadaian is using his finger dexterity for a much different activity. In his own words, he is a "dentist by day, guitar shredder by night."

Dadaian is an accomplished electric and classical guitarist, and in addition to opening for bands like Third Eye Blind, he has won several national guitar competitions.
