| I have been doing taxidermy since 1974. I am mostly
self-taught but I have attended numerous seminars at the State,
Regional, National and World level. LEARNING and IMPROVEMENT never
stops! I have done every aspect of taxidermy. I take pride in the
taxidermy work that I do, constantly upgrading my work through current
seminars and training. A taxidermist's goal is to create or re-create
what God has made. In that respect I will ensure that YOU, my customer
is extremely satisfied with your mounts that I finish. I am very
goal-orientated. I received my Bachelor's degree in History from Kansas
State University in 1983 and my Master's of Art degree in Management
from Webster University in 1990. I served on Active Duty in the U.S.
Army as an Infantry Officer for 9 years. I am a member of the Arizona
Taxidermy Artists Association (ATAA), Kansas Association of Taxidermists
(KAT).
