His research interests are in numerical analysis/computational science. He has worked summers at ARL (Adelphi) on synthetic aperture radar imagery for Automatic Target Recognition (ATR), at NSWC-Dahlgren on an inverse PDE problem involving radar performance, and at the AFRL Sensors Directorate on an ATR/Sensor Data Fusion problem. He was on leave during the 2005-2006 academic year at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, NM and during the 2012-2013 academic year as the Distinguished Visiting Professor of Mathematical Sciences at the U.S. Air Force Academy. He has a textbook on numerical analysis through Addison-Wesley Longman (Pearson).
He studied at Syracuse University
(BS Mathematics, BSEE Electrical Engineering) and Brown
Universty (Sc.M., Ph.D. from the Division
of Applied Mathematics), where he wrote his dissertation on a chaotic
dynamical system with applications to numerical analysis under Philip
J. Davis. He has also taught at Harvey
Mudd College (Claremont, CA), the Naval
Postgraduate School (Monterey, CA), the United
States Military Academy (West Point, NY) and Santa
Clara University (Santa Clara, CA). He lives near Terre
Haute, IN, and is an instructor in the Filipino martial art of
Presas Arnis.
