I work as a professor of soil physics in the Department of Plant and Soil Sciences at Oklahoma State University. This page is designed with my students in mind. One of my goals is to encourage my students to learn and grow in every area of life: intellectual, relational, physical, and spiritual. Research shows that student learning can benefit from teacher self-disclosure. So, this page is designed to allow my students, or anyone who is interested, to know a few things about me as a person. Please use the menu at the top of the page to learn more.
