During the Spring 2012 term, I am teaching Introduction to Mathematical Modelling (Math 112) and Topics in Calculus (Math 192). Course information is available for students on Moodle.

If you have any questions or concerns, please come see me. My office hours for the Spring 2012 term are:

• 10–11 a.m. Monday
• 3–4 p.m. Wednesday
• 9–11 a.m. Friday

You may also make an appointement to meet with me outside of my office hours. In addition, I have an open door policy: feel free to drop by whenever I am in my office.

Research

I am a noncommutative ring theorist whose primary research interest has been homological results involving graded algebras. For example, I have studied the Koszul and \(\mathcal{K}_2\) properties.
