I moved to WVC in 1995 from University of Colorado, Denver.  I enjoy teaching mathematics from beginning algebra to Linear Algebra and Differentail Equations.  Mathematics is the language of the sciences, gaming industry, electronics, business, and statistical studies in the social sciences.  Teaching community college mathematics is the best because I can teach a wide range of topics to a diverse student population.  I love to see students succeed in math on their way to careers in nursing or engineering.
