I am the Department Chair of the Department of Mathematics at Grand Valley State University. My graduate work was done in the area of ordinary differential equations, with applications to biology and chemistry. Since graduating, my scholarly work has focused on wavelets and Fourier analysis, large data sets, applications of mathematics, and collegiate mathematics education.

My first book is Discovering Wavelets, written with Steven Schlicker. My second book is Advanced Engineering Mathematics, written with Merle Potter and J. L. Goldberg.
