About Me
I am a senior entomology major at the University of Delaware. I am interested in Carabidae, and Curculionoidea. I am also interested in the family Theraphosidae, as well as Auchenorrhyncha. I am an avid insect collector, and have an interest in insect macrophotography, particularly of specimens. Some of my interests outside of entomology lie in history, aviation, and fishing.
I work in the University of Delaware Insect Research Collection (UDCC), curating Carabidae and Tenebrionidae, as well as digitization projects. My current projects include taxonomic work on the genus Pseudoflatoides (Flatidae), and a checklist of Carabidae of Delaware.
