Welcome to my Web Site here at the Walla
Walla Community College Science Division.
I began teaching geology here at WWCC
in 1989. In the mid 1990s I added astronomy and physics courses to my teaching
load and became a full-time instructor. Then in 1999, in addition to my
teaching assignments, I became the Chair of the Science Division, a position I
will hold until June 2004.
Before accepting a full-time teaching
appointment at WWCC in 1995, I held both Research and Operations Geophysicists
positions with the United States Geological Survey for 17 years. My primary
area of interest was the geologic structure and evolution of the Arctic Ocean
Basin. One of my career highlights occurred in 1994 when I was part of a
research team aboard the United States Coast Guard Cutter Polar Sea, the
first US ship to reach the North Pole.
In 1977 I
completed my Master's degree at Stanford University in Exploration Geophysics.
I did my undergraduate work at Western Washington University (then known as Western
Washington State College), earning a Bachelor's degree in Geophysics, with
minors in Astronomy and Mathematics.
