About me
I began my professional career as a pharmacist, and after ten years of "count & pour, lick & stick", I went back to school to get my PhD in pharmaceutical chemistry at Oregon State University. I became interested in computer-aided drug design, and I did a postdoc at Penn State University, where I also worked for a couple of years at Minitab, Inc. I moved to California, where I worked from 1984-2005 as a scientific programmer for Elsevier-MDL, a software house that provided chemical structure databases and software for the chemical, pharmaceutical, and biotech industries. I retired when MDL was purchased by Symyx Technologies, and I went on to get an MS(Ed) in Online Teaching/Learning at California State University. I think E-learning is really exciting, and I would like to start up some online learning with middle-school students at the school where I teach computers. Throughout my career, I have coached age-group and high school swimmers, which keeps me busy in the summer.
Some links of interest:

Calvary Lutheran School - I teach computer classes to 3rd-8th graders at Calvary Lutheran in San Lorenzo.
Summer swim team - We're the Sharks - perpetually at the bottom of the rankings - but we have a lot of fun!
