It started on Isla Nublar in 1993!

Ranger Baker, at the ready! I had the good fortune to work Jurassic World: the Exhibition (Denver, CO. in 2022). This was me in the Indominus Rex paddock! Oh, I miss that job... I never thought I'd work something remotely related to Jurassic Park! Read more about my experience working there here!

For it's time, a technological juggernaut.

Even small mistakes are revered; the hand steadying a raptor or a continuity-issue door.

Everyone adores those clever carnivores; the tremendous roar of the rex as the iconic banner falls.

First sighting that brachiosaurus...

The brachiosaurus at Jurassic World: the Exhibition (Denver, CO. in 2022). Read about my experience working the exhibition here.

Breathtaking. Every time...
