I have been collecting and mounting insects from all over the world for more than 25 years. During that time, I have mounted over 50,000 insects of all varieties for private collections, research laboratories, universities, and museums.

I graduated from Miami University (Ohio) with a Bachelor's degree in Zoology. While studying as an undergraduate and graduate student, I worked in a research laboratory studying insect biodiversity. In this lab I mounted, identified, and added insects to the University’s insect collection. Throughout my career, I have used my private collection to illustrate the concepts of biodiversity, taxonomy, and ecology for students of all ages. My favorite insects are Swallowtail Butterflies, Bird-Wing Butterflies, and all types of Beetles (particularly Metallic Woodboring Beetles).

New research has shown that there are more than 50 million different species of insects on the planet, with new species being discovered every day! Sharing my love of insects is my lifelong passion. In my experience, many people who think they do not like "bugs" find themselves wanting to know more about the world of insects once they have seen examples of beautiful species from around the world, species they never knew existed .
