degree with an emphasis in computers. My research advisor was
Dr.
Mark Law at UF .
I have my resume online.
Juggling
Juggling has been a hobby of mine
since age 11. I am probably bestknown for my juggling simulator,
JugglePro. As a matter of fact, the above picture of me is taken from
an article about me in Juggler's World Magazine. If you are interested
in juggling, consider buying
this . Check out the
JIS
Media Section! Here is a picture of me passing clubs in a 16-club box.
I am at the front right, Martin Frost is at the back left.Owen Morse
(left) and Jon Wee (back right) of "The Passing Zone" have fun trying to
knock out our clubs.This is piece of a stereo picture taken byDuane
Starcher at the Montreal IJA Fest.
Math
Besides juggling I enjoy math puzzles and belong to the MAA.I have written
a paper about the
math
of juggling.
Music
I like jazz and hate country. I enjoy composing on the piano. Some of my
best works are "Chocolate Factory" and "Figure Skater".
