He had a Vet practice in New Orleans, but the city held too many memories. So he has moved back to his mother's birthplace, Prospect, and will attend UCP in 2024 to get a Ph.D. in Computer Science. Vet school was for his parents, though he loves animals and gets along with them well. Computers are his other passion, and he'd like to teach.
