About me: The son of a sergeant in the Marine Corp. and orphan from the depression, I became the first person in my family to graduate from college.

I married Dr. Dodson in 1982 and we both founded and operated Petvacx, Inc., the first mobile veterinary clinic of its kind around the country. Seven years later, Petvacx, Inc. expanded by opening its full service hospital. I participated as Board Member of the Montgomery County Humane Society for ten years. I have also worked with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources involving injured deer, as well as participating in local government bodies promoting humane handling of animals under government care.
