The College of Wooster is America's premier college for mentored undergraduate research. Wooster is a private liberal arts college located in Wooster, Ohio with a student body of approximately 2,000 undergraduates living on our 240 acre residential campus.

I am a Mathematician by training with experience in teaching a wide range of courses and an interest in the incorporation of technology into the curriculum. I studied with Dr. Stephen Milne at The Ohio State University doing research in the area of Special Functions and Hypergeometric Series. My doctoral work looked at a way to extend an identity of Ramanujan to the Multiple Basic Hypergeometric setting.My interest in the interplay of technology and pedagogy lead to my acceptance of a position as the first Instructional Technologist at the College of Wooster. My early work focused on establishing a course management system and course blogging system. Subsequently, I have provided leadership and vision on the ways technology can enhance education at the College.Areas of specialization: Moodle, Wordpress, Wordpress MS (MU), Cryptography, TeX, LaTeX, Basic Hypergeometric series, Multiple Basic Hypergeometric series, CSS, HTML
