<p>I received my Ph.D in mathematics from Ohio State in 1994 under the direction of <a href="http://www.math.osu.edu/~edgar.2/Site/G_A_Edgar.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Gerald Edgar</a> and have been a professor of mathematics at <a href="http://www.unca.edu/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">The University of North Carolina - Asheville</a> since 1997. My scholarly interests include fractal geometry, discrete dynamics, and computer graphics to illustrate those topics. I've also worked sporadically over the years as a part-time consultant to <a href="http://www.wolfram.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Wolfram Research</a>, though not currently.</p>

<p>I started teaching statistics only very recently, primarily so I could learn it myself!</p>
