<h3 class="style41

Grand Valley State University in the Fall of |
|
|
1993, received tenure in 1999, and
was promoted |
|
|
to Full Professor in 2006. I've had the opportunity to teach a wide
variety different courses, including |
|
|
college algebra, calculus, proof
writing, linear algebra, differential |
|
|
equations, operations research,
vector calculus, modern algebra, real analysis, and |
|
|
complex analysis. In the Fall of
2009, I received the GVSU Alumni Association's <a
href="http://alumniassociation.createsend3.com/T/ViewEmail/r/94B5C97592456E30/E2A2EE0FE11E42BFC68C6A341B5D209E">Outstanding
Educator Award</a></span>.</h3> |
|
|
<h3 class="style41
style44"><span class="style41 style50"> Although my
graduate training was in the field of Fourier analysis, my research since
coming to GVSU has primarily involved collaborating with students on problems
in analysis and discrete dynamical systems. From 2006-2009, I wrote a
textbook used in our operations course, entitled <a href="http://www.lp-nlp-with-maple.org/"
>Linear and Nonlinear Programming with Maple: An Interactive,
Applications-Based Approach</a>, Chapman and Hall / CRC Press, 2009. My
current research interests focus on signal processing and network modeling in
the neurosciences. As part of this project, I am collaborating with
colleagues and graduate students in GVSU's Biomedical Engineering as well
neurologists from Spectrum Health Systems to analyze patient electroencephalogrophy (EEG) data coming from Spectrum
Hospital's Epilepsy Monitoring Unit. </span> </h3> |

|
|
interest to me. I am involved with

>Pi Mu Epsilon</a> and currently serve as the organization's
President. </span></h3> |

bicycling, and |

traditional, Greenland-style sea
kayaking. I've been paddling over 25 years and hold the <a href="http://www.bcu.org.uk/">British
Canoe Union</a> 4-Star |
