I have attended a number of conferences on teaching statistics, most recently the Eighth Annual "Beyond the Formula" conference in Rochester, NY. I have also been to several meetings of the EPADEL society, the regional group of the Mathematical Association of America. My dissertation was in the field of numerical analysis. I gave a lecture on my work at the annual winter meeting of the American Mathematical Society, Baltimore, MD.
