Awards, Quotes, Testimonials

"I have been bombarded with excited comments about your video session. The kids thought it was a fantastic experience and highly recommended that we schedule you for several sessions next school year. I agree! Thank you again...it was great to give the students the opportunity to meet you and hear your presentation."

"Thanks for a great job today. The kids were really impressed and enjoyed the experience. Afterards, many of them commented on how the insides aren't really as neat as they are depicted in textbooks and some said there were many similarities to deer they have 'autopsied'. I thought you did a very good job of adapting to include forensic information."
