Biography
I enjoy teaching at Taylor because I can freely express my faith in my classes and I can teach the best subject in the world—physics! Taylor students are, in general, highly capable, highly motivated, and excellent students to work with. It is a real joy to teach them, to be with them, to know them, and see them move into their potential as scientists and engineers
Hobbies
