About the author

From a base in southern Arizona, I explore the universe. I've been exploring, writing, drawing, making photographs, and teaching as long as I can remember. And I can remember a long time.

I currently manage social media for a small museum. I also personally run two podcasts, at least one YouTube channel, and a blog or several.

I have been a stamp collector for a whole lotta years, and kept fishes for over 40 years, birded all my life (my first word was "owl"), and been a dinonut almost as long (the encyclopedia I used as a picture book STILL falls open to the dinosaur entry).

I have a degree in Environmental and Systematics Biology from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, and have worked and studied biology around North America.
