MIKE
Mike Moser grew up in Ogden, Utah, where he married and raised 5
children. After getting a degree in manufacturing engineering and an
MBA,
his pursuits moved him to New Mexico where he met Phyllis and
"discovered" alpacas. Mike is a full time Alpaca
Rancher
that does all the "hands on" work and caring for the alpacas.
When time allows, he does small
contractor jobs, remodeling and building additions on houses. He loves
the
hours and can go fishing when the weather is nice or ski when the
powder is calling.
PHYLLIS
Phyllis Swenson grew up in Los Alamos, New Mexico. Through the years
she has enjoyed two careers, as an Architect and a
Database Software Developer (her true passion). She has two teenage
girls in
Albuquerque, where she spends a week a month. She recently reorganized
her career to do the software support, on a full time basis, from the
ranch,
support Mike's constuction work with her Architecture, develop alpaca
websites and marketing leads, watch for new cria (babies),
and
work hands-on with the alpacas. Whew, Mike gets the easy end
of this partnership!!

Africa. Aard means "of the earth", wolf needs no
explanation. Click this link to the photos
