I am an estate and probate attorney in San Antonio and a lifelong turtle enthusiast. My articles on turtles have appeared in Reptiles and Reptiles and Amphibian magazines. Although I am most active in the Austin-San Antonio corridor, I make semi-frequent excursions to West Texas and the coast. My greatest find was the Texas diamondback terrapin. Outside of work and wildlife, I have played in more than a dozen strange rocks bands.
