About Me
I grew up on a small farm in Brentwood, California where we raised meat goats, pigs,
cattle, and many other typical livestock. I spent 10 years in my local 4-H, and 4 years in
FFA, gutted my first deer at age 11, and tanned my first goat hide at age 14. Over the
years butchering our own livestock, I became fascinated with preserving the skin and
skulls and pursued the art of taxidermy.
Along with my retired parents, we now raise many varieties of game birds, emus, Fallow
deer, goats, and more.
Now, at age 37, I am a single mother of two young girls and finally getting my
taxidermy into a full time business. I entered three mounts in the World Taxidermy
Championships in Reno, NV. in April of 2007, placing third place on all my mounts. Since
then, I have expanded my range of mounts from exotic mammals and birds, to common
and domestic animals.
Taxidermy is an art that can only be learned by doing. Though I am newer to the art
that some others, I can offer quality work at a lower price that those who can advertise
many more years service. As with any art, if you have the talent, years make no
difference. Look at my work, and judge for yourself!
