I joined Tri-State University's Department
of Mathematics and Computer Science in January 2002, but many of
my philosophies on education were shaped in the years before.
I graduated from
Miami
University in 1986 with a Bachelor of Science in Systems
Analysis. I worked as a computer programmer/Analyst/Systems
Engineer at AT&T, GTE, and Verizon.
Between stints at AT&T and GTE/Verizon,
I took graduate classes in mathematics and secondary education
at Purdue
University in 1989-90. I completed my student teaching at
Lewis Cass Jr./ Sr. High School in Walton, IN and taught mathematics and computers at West Noble High School in
Ligonier, IN.
In 1998, I earned a Master of Business
Administration (MBA) from
Indiana
University. In 2004, I completed a Master of Science
in Computer Information Technology from
Regis University.
I am now pursuing a Ph.D. in Technology Management
from
Indiana State University.
I left Verizon to come to Tri-State
University. I taught in the Department of Mathematics and
Computer Science from January 2002-December 2007. In
January 2008, I moved with Computer Science to the Department of
Computer and Electrical Engineering.
My hobbies include playing the saxophone
and bass guitar in the Fairview Missionary Church's Praise Band, going off road with
my Jeep, and tinkering on my MG.
My wife and I have lived in Angola since 1991. We have
two daughters, two dogs, a guinea pig, and a whole slew of
cats.
