Courses Taught

I am an Associate Professor of Mathematics, and the Director of the Division of Mathematics and Computer Science at Lindenwood University.

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with a minor in Computer Science from the Missouri University of Science and Technology (formerly known as the University of Missouri at Rolla) in 2002. After taking a year off from my academic pursuits, I later returned to Missouri S&T to pursue graduate studies, earning a Master’s of Science in Mathematics in 2005 and a Ph.D. in Mathematics in 2008. Both graduate degrees were completed under the supervision of my academic advisor, Dr. Wlodzimierz J. Charatonik.

After completing my Ph.D., I spent two years as a Lecturer in the Mathematics Department at The Pennsylvania State University. I returned to Missouri in 2010 to join the faculty at Lindenwood University as an Assistant Professor.

I currently live in St. Louis with my wife, Katie, and three cats, Luna, Garbanzo, and Cauchy.

My academic interests include Machine Learning, Data Visualization, Financial Mathematics, Statistics, Topology, Dynamical Systems, and Abstract Algebra.

My hobbies include traveling, running, rock climbing, board games, Rubik’s cubes, and watching television.
