About Me and Welcome

In my professional life I am an applied Mathematician. I use (sometimes) complicated mathematics and computer algorithms to solve real world problems (or at least try to understand these problems a little better). Sometimes I simply study the algorithms themselves. I teach undergraduate and graduate level mathematics.

I have a "million'' dollar family - a beautiful wife and two kids: a boy (4) and a girl (6). Busy times but I enjoy every minute.

For the last 30 years (on and off) I have been a collector - stamps, coins, books, and sports cards - with an emphasis on hockey, hence the name of the blog.

In the days, weeks, and years to come I will share aspects of my life - work, family and hobbies. Hope you enjoy. Till next time.
