Luis Salazar MRCVS
Born in the northern Portuguese city of Guimarães, Luís graduated from UTAD in 2010. Since then he pursued a career in a small animal veterinary practice, driven by his passion for all kinds of animals, but especially his self-centred and lazy cats. He has been a huge Formula 1 fan since he was a little boy and the only reason for him to miss a race is an out-of-hours call. In his spare time he likes to read and increase his record collection.
He also thinks that pineapple on pizza is disgusting and should be banned!
