“Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity. And life and death are of supreme importance. Time swiftly passes by, and opportunity is lost. Take heed. Do not squander your life." — Hippocrates and Dogen. Above all, however, follow St. Paul, and "live a life worthy of the calling you have received.”
In my free time, I enjoy sailing on Lake Superior; attempting to write short stories; reading everything written by C. McCarthy, O. Tokarczuk and A. Doerr; teaching undergraduate classes; and practicing mindfulness.
