Hey there

My name is Trevor and I am from the Niagara region in Ontario Canada. I work as nurse manager in a long term care facility managing responsive behaviours. I always had an interest in rocks, however I got my first tumbler for Christmas last year. So far I have no had great success, so I may be picking brains on this forum for some troubleshooting tips!
