Research Interests: Environmental Chemistry, Persistent Organic Pollutants, Water, Sediment, Emerging Contaminants
I am a professor of chemistry at The University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh in Oshkosh, WI. My teaching experience includes Analytical Chemistry I and II, Analytical Separations, Environmental Chemistry (Quest II course), and General Chemistry I and II. My research interests are in the areas of environmental chemistry and trace chemical analysis.
My research broadly focuses on the assessment of environmental contamination. I have conducted research on the contamination of stormwater pond and river sediments, including risk analysis for humans and wildlife and modeling based on land use. I am a board member of the Fox Wolf Watershed Alliance and a member of the American Chemical Society.
I also do chemical consulting work in foods, fuels, and environmental analytical areas. Available tools include elemental analysis (AA), GC-MS and LC-MS plus many others. Contact me to discuss your needs.
