Interests: Teaching undergraduate biology, mathematics and computer science.
Research
Description
Personal: I am currently “semi-retired”. I considered retiring
completely, but the excitement of teaching the new biology courses was
just too much and so I continue to work part-time here at Mines. In my
spare time I enjoy hiking Colorado's mountains with my wife Magda. Magda
is the first woman from Spain to reach the summit of an 8,000 meter peak
(Cho Oyu—26,905ft) and keeping up with her on the fourteeners has
provided years of “relaxation”.
Humanitarian: In 1999 Magda and I co-founded Namlo International, a non-profit
organization that builds schools in developing countries. There are currently
over 700 children attending Namlo schools in Nepal and Nicaragua. Visit
us on the web at www.namlo.org.
