What do you like most about your job?
The best part of my job is when a company that is convicted of an Environmental Crime is forced as part of their sentence to pay for environmental clean up or some other program that helps restore the environment.
What made you decide to do this for a living?
I became interested in Environmental Crimes' Investigations because I had an experience in a town where I was a police officer a long time ago. There was a company there that illegally dumped chemicals. People I knew were hurt because of it.
What advice would you give to a child interested in a career like yours?
My advice to any child interested in a career like mine is to work hard in school, and never quit learning. Stay

healthy and physically fit, by staying away from drugs, eating, and sleeping properly and getting a lot of exercise. Keep out of trouble, and associate with good people. By making yourself as strong and intelligent, and as trustworthy as you can, you should be able to choose a career like mine or any good career you want.
