Interests and hobbies

Regarding his involvement, Dr. Tam shared, “I have interacted with many ex-offenders and prison inmates who are determined to make a fresh start, and I support their choice to do so. The removal of tattoos, which serve as reminders of their troubled past, allows the public to perceive them in a new light.”
