Background

For the last two plus decades I have been privileged to teach chemistry at WLC. Even though my background includes study of both the humanities and the sciences, I have largely taught chemistry here at WLC. I still consider the liberal arts valuable and important for the 21st century student. Sometimes my lectures contain obscure references to 《十大网投平台信誉排行榜》. Off campus usually finds me playing baseball or Lego with my sons or pondering the usage of interrobangs.

ReSearch Interests

My formal scholarly training is in the area of synthetic organic chemistry; particularly trying to synthesize derivatives of α-amino acids. This has manifested itself in me trying to synthesize these molecules by reacting copper catalysts with α-diazocarbonyls. 的 resulting morphonlones can be converted into α-amino acids by trivial means. Even though more students have worked on this project, I have mentored students on projects as diverse as ecology or assaying the biological activity of sulfa drugs.
