Biography
I am a full-time Mathematics Instructor at Clayton State University, where I have been teaching for over 20 years at the college and university level. Over the years, I have taught a wide variety of courses including College Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Statistics, Mathematical Modeling, and Calculus I. Before transitioning to the university setting, I gained experience tutoring middle school mathematics at Kennedy Middle School here in the Atlanta area. I also gained experience in the publishing world, working with EducoSoft, a private mathematics textbook publisher. Academically, I hold both a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree in Mathematics from Clark Atlanta University. In addition to teaching, I am also continuing to expand my knowledge by exploring new areas such as data science.
