Several years ago, while working as the Gentle Leader Product Manager at Premier Pet Products, I had the good fortune of visiting San Francisco to tour the then new and state of the art San Francisco SPCA. At the time, there was no other facility like it in the world and to top things off, Jean Donaldson, author of The Culture Clash
After touring the facility, I hit a few stores, looking for dog-related gifts to take home. I ended up in a little shop called The Loft where I found some note cards by an artist named R. Nichols.
His work was simple, playful, and clean. I loved his work so much that I bought every box of cards they had.

I’ve always had a more than healthy appetite for information about infectious disease and epidemiolgy, something I squarely blame on past conversations with Dr. R. K. Anderson DVM, Diplomate ACVB and ACVPM.
I had the good fortune of working under his tutelage while employed as the Gentle Leader Product Manager at Premier Pet Products many years ago.
The appeal of the subject matter comes from its seeming unpredictability and follows the observations on the world made by Heraclitus (Greek philosopher c.535 BC - 475 BC)—that everything flows, nothing stands still. The infectious disease process is always shifting and adapting, giving constant rise to new challenges for healthcare professionals and for me, it represents an easily understood model of change and adaptability when modeling other behavioural systems—be they personal, business, or otherwise.
