Faculty of the year for the Center for Math and Science, 2011.
Working with students in the math lab and during my study hall times. I also enjoy seeing my students transfer to four-year institutions and start their careers.
Other than sleeping and eating and drinking, I like to bike tour. Bike touring means taking my bicycle and loading it with my camping gear and riding places and then camping. I have bike toured in Alaska, Central America, Cuba, and Brazil recently!
Getting a thank you card from a student with a picture of bell curve on the front with a biker riding up the bell curve.
My dad, who scared me into getting good grades, and my junior high and high school math teachers. They were great models for the teacher that I am today.
Don’t sweat the small stuff.
Running and biking, and cheese.
