Courses Taught:
Principles of Chemistry (CHEM 1251/1252)
Survey of Physical Chemistry (CHEM 2141)                                                                  Physical Chemistry Laboratory (CHEM 3141/3142)
Analytical Chemistry Laboratory (CHEM 3111)

Research Focus:
My research interests are related to the investigation of dynamics using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.  Past work includes the study of molecular rotation in crystalline solids, chain dynamics in amorphous polymers, and rate studies of exchanging spin systems.  Current interests include reaction kinetics of anionic polymerizations and structural determinations of reaction intermediates in organocuprate addition reactions.
