Born and raised in Ruston, Louisiana Tech University has been an integral part of my life. I graduated from Tech in 1989 with a degree in Mathematics Education (Psychology minor). After three years of graduate school, I obtained a Master's of Divinity degree from Saint Paul School of Theology. I served the Louisiana and Missouri Annual Conferences of the United Methodist Church as a minister to various churches.
I returned to Ruston in 2003 and have completed a Master's Degree in Mathematics. I have also completed a PhD in the CAM (Computational Analysis and Modeling) program at Tech with an emphasis in Microsystems Engineering.
I serve as a Lecturer in the Mathematics Department. See the classes page for information on current teaching and the research page for research interests.
