About
I am a PhD Chemist with about 10 years of professional experience in the areas of organic methods development, synthesis, and catalysis.

I will be using this user space for new article development and demonstration to students.

I am available to review articles in organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and related areas. I can also answer technical questions on making graphics work right for chemists.

Significant Editing Disclosures

 * I am interested in improving the quality and quantity of science articles (mostly chemistry) in the Wikipedia as a service to the public and these activities may be discussed and incorporated into talks I give and research proposals I write
 * I am also studying how having advanced students publish their work (by writing Wikipedia articles) can affect their motivation and participation in learning
