About

I've been a lecturer in Mathematics and Computer Science at Kingsborough Community College, part of the City University of New York (the largest urban university in the USA), since 2005. Kingsborough is regularly ranked as a top-5 community college by the Aspen Institute.

You'll be amazed, astounded, and incredulous at my experiences teaching at a community college. Comments to that effect are "no longer needed".
