Alex: Business Owner

I grew up spending every summer and school break in a different country where my parents were teaching so I was able to see and learn about every variety of natural habitat and the animals that lived there. My interest in butterflies and other insects started at a very young age and continued through high school, when I volunteered at the Los Angeles Natural History Museum, then into college where I attended Purdue University to receive a Bachelor’s Degree in Entomology with minors in Forensic Science and Conservation Biology. Over time my hobby became my business and BicBugs was born in early 2011.

Victoria Bic: Business Owner

Alex and I met at Purdue University where I was studying Veterinary Technology at the time. I have always had a love of the natural world, but he opened my eyes to the study of entomology, where I found a new passion and appreciation for nature and the critters that surround us. After graduating we moved to Arizona and started BicBugs. I only meant to help out a bit at the beginning, but our passions ensured the business became wildly successful! I now use my veterinary degree caring for the BicBugs mascots and oversee the business full time.

Alex and Victoria are Research Associates with the McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity at the Florida Museum of Natural History. They are members of the Lepidopterists’ Society, the Lorquin Entomological Society, and the Southeast Arizona Butterfly Association. They also have several scientific publications in various entomological journals and magazines throughout the world.
