I am currently an Associate Lecturer and Undergraduate Advisor for pure math, applied math, and math & computer science concentrations in the Department of Mathematics & Statistics at the University of Toledo

I received my PhD from Alabama in 2008 under the direction of  Prof. Joseph Neggers. As a masters student, I worked on a joint CS/Math project under the guidance of Prof. John Black, and the supervision of Prof. Eric Stade. I received my MS in 2004 from the University of Colorado at Boulder. 

My primary interests revolve around algebraic cryptography, and universal algebra; especially, ordered algebraic structures. Even more specifically, logic-algebras which emerged from propositional calculus as seen in the works of Y. Imai and K. Iseki . 

My secondary interest is in number theory, coding theory, and information security.
