Creating books and possibly other items to sell. Currently starting with a line of 51 bilingual word search puzzle books, but plan to branch out into similar other information / entertainment / artistic products in the future.
I am unclear as to the meaning of the question "Did any portion of this activity occur during your appointment to UT MD Anderson Cancer Center?" I answered No assuming you meant "Did I do any work on this project during work time at MD Anderson". If you meant, "Did I work on the project during non-work hours or while on PTO from MD Anderson", then I would answer Yes. Just started putting books up for sale yesterday, no sales yet.

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.
Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.
ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
