· “Hearing and understanding their stories and their experiences of whatever phenomenon I'm researching…These are real people, and they're real people that have stories. That's why I keep coming back to this.” – Karen Campbell
· “I envision it's almost like a puzzle…trying to figure out which paths to take, which directions to go…It's that discovery that I find exciting, and that's what keeps me interested in this work.” – Jeff Petruzzelli
· “I would say intrigue…when you work in the detail and nuance and you work through it with all these different tools, you're just confident that we're going to figure it out.” – Ray Maietta
