My Corner
I was born in an army hospital at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky in 1995. I spent time both on military bases in the American South and on my families farm in North central Illinois as an adolescent. I aspired to be a pilot from seeing all the military aircraft on base while growing up. My interests at St. Bede Abbey and Academy evolved to include mathematical science with Bernie Moore’s Algebra class. Bernie Moore served in these United State’s Air Force and his disciplined instructional approach encouraged me to take school seriously. Brother Luke McLachlan, a physics instructor and a former pilot, inspired my desire to learn about the value of mathematics in my every day life. I often pursued flight lessons and extracurricular activities related to the application of mathematics after school where this continued into my collegiate career at Northern Illinois University. When I arrived at Northern Illinois University, I was unsure whether I would continue to pursue my mathematical interests or achieve a baccalaureate in a similar field. My resolve to learn more and attend graduate school intersected with Dr. Maya Mincheva at the University. A wonderful lecturer who influenced and often inspired me to seek new insights in my studies, later becoming my thesis advisor. At the direction of Dr. Mincheva, I became adept at applying differential equations to create a model of a biological system and would present my graduating thesis in Analyzing Multistationarity in a Model of a Dual Phosphorylation Network. Of course, none of these pursuits wouldn’t be possible without my Mother’s exorbitant generosity and loving encouragement.
South Louisiana Community College
I am currently employed as a lecturer at South Louisiana Community College. I find it helpful and often beneficial that students past and present are able to access lecture notes for their studies or various resources that are available to them.

Lectures
I have included the lecture material of various classes that I have taught whilst at South Louisiana Community College for anyone’s viewing. Many of the topics will be similar to what students see across curricula in these United States at the collegiate level of their academic career.
