Educational Background and Professional Experience

B.S. Mathematics, Carnegie-Mellon University, 1985
M.S. Mathematics, New York University, 1987
Additional graduate work, UCLA, 1988-1990

Before coming to West Valley I taught full-time at Pasadena City College and part-time at New York University, Santa Monica College and Santa Clara University.

I am currently Board Secretary of the Santa Clara Valley Mathematics Association and a member of the California Mathematics Council of Community Colleges (CMC³) as well as the American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC).

I completed an educational research project in 2002 concerning math in the high-tech workplace, sponsored by IISME (Industry Initiatives in Science and Math Education). If you are interested in seeing the results, view my PowerPoint presentation here.
