Well, here goes my intro.

I started in Dart Frogs back in 1988 with some juvenile auratus while I was a graduate student at

Northern Arizona University. I had those three frogs until I left NAU (4 years later). It wasn't until 1994 that I started to go into dart frogs big time. I have kept many different varieties and species of dart frogs from thumbnails to terribillis.

I have been on and off frognet since it was started by Anthony Hundt way back in the dark ages. Those days Tor was still doing mantellas and working for the conservation core (I believe).

By training I am a fish ecologist. I do most of my research in the Red Sea and will be starting projects in the Amazon and another project on brain development in dart frogs (hence why I had a call for WC auratus a while back).

I have been a college professor since 1991 and enjoy the life of leisure I live with my wife in Southern California.

That is it, short and sweet and not much substance...such is my life.
