I have been at Otterbein since 1986, and teach a variety of freshmen and sophomore mathematics classes. My PhD is in Mathematics Education from the Ohio State University. With a BS and teaching license in mathematics from the University of Dayton and MA in mathematics from the Ohio State University, I taught at Bishop Ready HS in Columbus for three years before coming to Otterbein.

I enjoy a variety of music, theatre and sports, and I've had the good fortune of experiencing visits to Russia and Estonia for a professional tour, as well to as Botswana in Africa for a mission trip.
