I was born in Maine and lived there until the age of ten, at which point my family moved to Mississippi. I spent many of my young days in Maine collecting insects, exploring the woods, and drawing everything I could see (and many things that no one ever sees). When we moved to Mississippi my interests in art and nature continued. After graduating from High School, I attended the Memphis College of Art for a while, but decided it wasn't for me. I worked the night shift at a local grocery and did some free lance artwork on the side for the next few years. In March of 1988, I started working part time at the Mississippi State Entomological Museum doing basic museum tasks. Eventually, this job became a full time permanent position (for more personal info, go to my personal website).
Photograph of the head of Pyramica hexamera, an exotic Japanese ant now found in the southeastern United States. The photo was taken with a digital camera on a microscope using Image Pro Plus software, then manipulated in Adobe Photoshop to emphasize the peculiar setation, which is thought to be sensory in nature.
I have a wide variety of job responsibilities here at the Museum and everyday is a learning experience. One of my many tasks is specimen preparation and specimen labeling for the collection. Since I started working here I have pinned, pointed, and labeled hundreds of thousands of insects. Our museum director, Richard Brown, is interested in micro-lepidoptera, and that means that I have spread the wings of many thousands of micros. Part of our collection is stored in alcohol and I also label these and help maintain our alcohol collection. After the labeling is completed I help sort the insects to either order or family at which point they are placed in the collection. There are times when I identify insects for the public, or other people in our department. One aspect of the job here that I find very rewarding is the curation of select families of insects. I currently curate our scarab collection, which numbers over a hundred drawers at the present time, and the Culicidae and Formicidae collections. Another integral part of the job is collecting insects (and their relatives) for our collection. We have conducted several arthropod surveys in threatened habitats in the Southeast that I have participated in. I have been a member of our annual William H. Cross collecting expedition 20 times. I also collect insects on my own whenever the opportunity arises and enjoy watching the activities of insects in my spare time. I draw all of the scientific illustrations needed for publications done by, and associated with, the museum, and occasionally others in our department (for more info on scientific drawings). These drawings range from tortricid genitalia to habitus drawings of scarabs, hydrophilids, nitidulids, etc., to termite wings. Ocassionally, I talk to groups of students about either entomology or scientific illustration. Currently, I am doing a survey of Mississippi ants, as well as Alabama ants, in an effort to better understand our ant fauna, and in fact, much my time these days is directed toward the study of ants in our region. Most recently I am the webmaster for the Mississippi Entomological Museum site. I have also done various botanical and other illustrations and have exhibited non scientific artwork in regional exhibitions.
