I am an advocate for awareness, the truth, and a person's right to know. I believe that in the absence of the truth, all of us stand helpless to defend ourselves, our families and our health, which is the greatest gift we have.

What people don't understand is like when water gets polluted, it's an entire aquifer. There's a whole fascinating world that exists underneath our feet that we don't see, therefore we don't relate.

We must have clean water and the health and the welfare of our children is at stake and is at risk.

I do care a great deal about the environment but my real work and my greatest challenge is trying to overcome deceits that end up jeopardizing public health and safety.

Each disaster became a steppingstone for growth.

Life is full of challenges. How you handle these challenges is what builds character. Never be afraid to be who you are.

My mom and my dad taught me the greatest gifts we have are our family, our health and the right to clean water and good land.
