Research Program and Goals:

My teaching interests have primarily been in lower division service courses in both mathematics and computer science. These courses serve a great need and are often challenging. In additions to papers and conference presentations, I have published two calculus study guides (multiple editions of each), assisted in multiple editions of the best selling trig book in the U.S. and coauthored five editions of a defining work in the transition to advanced mathematics field.
