My current duties in the Department of Entomology focus on providing members of the department with their scientific illustration, digital photography, and computer graphics needs. I am also tasked with the management of the Department's website.

Prior to my current position, I served as a research assistant and illustrator for research zoologist and curator of mammals, Richard Thorington, in the Department of Vertebrate Zoology; Scientific illustrator for research zoologist and curator of fishes, Victor Springer, also in the Department of Vertebrate Zoology; and research assistant for research entomologist and curator of Lepidoptera, Scott Miller, in the Department of Entomology. I am a co-author of a wide range of related publications.
