What I Love about VIN

I love the company of veterinarians. I tried work at USAID, on Wall Street, and spent years in immunology and parasitology labs. Each community had its attractions, but I am at heart what I have always wanted to be: A doctor to help people and their animals, one at a time. VIN is the community I joined right out of school and I am grateful to be part of it.

When I’m Not on VIN

I referee soccer for kids and high schoolers.

We have three adult children who let us tag along on some of their adventures.

“what is still more remarkable - men who speak the language of modern philosophy, nevertheless think the thoughts of the Schoolmen” —Huxley, T Science and Culture, Lect. 2. Universities

I try to think about Aquinas’ primary thought every day: Good is to be done and pursued, and evil is to be avoided.
