Biography:

I am a Family Physician living in South Jordan, Utah, a suburb of Salt Lake City. I have belonged to the Utah Lepidopterist's Society for 30 years. Specializing in moths, especially the Sphinx moths of Utah (Sphingidae), I enjoy rearing and photographing lepidoptera of all kinds. I am also a nature photographer and enjoy sharing my images with others. Father of 4 and grandfather of 10, I enjoy this beautiful world God has created for us.
