Who Will Be CALI’s Next Investigator of the Year?

 
Last year, I was honored to receive the Investigator of the Year (IOY) Award from the California Association of Licensed Investigators (CALI). This recognition isn't just about a single case or accomplishment—it’s about dedication to the profession, contributions to the industry, and service to the community.
