    This year, I'm teaching Algebra 1 and IB A&I Year 1. I have a BS in mechanical engineering from the University of Wisconsin and have eight years of work experience in mechanical engineering, including 4 years as co-owner of an engineering design and prototyping business. I attended graduate school at the University of Montana for two years where I was pursuing a Ph.D. in applied mathematics/math education and Concordia University Wisconsin where I earned an M.S. degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I've taught just about every course from pre-algebra to 200 level college courses and learn new things about math and students every day. 
     
    With my experience working as an engineer and running my own business, I emphasize applications of mathematics and mathematical modeling skills necessary to be successful outside of school. Math is not about getting an answer. Mathematics is problem solving and using numbers and patterns to make sense of the world. Everyone can do math and everyone can use math to make their lives easier.
