In May 2009, I had the opportunity to start my own small business using the skills acquired during my years studying geology and hydro-geology at undergraduate and graduate school, and during my 25-year career as a geologist in the environmental consulting industry. My father once told me it takes three years before you start to see any dividends.

Since then, I have had growing success working with some steady and loyal clients. Clients who have challenged me to work hard but have never questioned my intentions. It is truly wonderful to know that there are people who want to hear the facts, good or bad, so that they can make good decisions. This year, I and my family are fortunate to celebrate ten years of delivering quality environmental service, and we are looking forward to the next.
