Education and Professional Experience

  • B.S. Botany, 1965, University of Georgia
  • Ph.D., Plant Biological Chemistry, University of Georgia
  • Postdoctoral Fellowshiop, 197-01972, Laboratory Quantitative Biology, University of Miami
  • Faculty member, University of Miami, 1972-present
I have served as a technical swim official to the National Governing Body of Swimming in the United States, U.S.A. Swimming and to the NCAA , where I have been the referee for over 25 National Championships, 4 U.S. Olympic Festivals, and 4 Olympic Trials. I Worked as a technical swim official on the pool deck at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, the 1994 Rome World Championships, the 1995 Pan Pacific Championships, the 1995, 1999, & 2003 Pan Am Games, the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, the 1998 Goodwill Games, and as head referee for the Women's NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships since 1997.

Areas of Focus

Tropical Biology
Cell and Molecular Biology

Research Interests

My research interests include the study of the developmental changes that occur in the biochemistry and physiology of germinating plant root cells ; the molecular profiles of DNA, RNA and protein during root cell germination ; the role of transport ATPase enzymes in the adaptation of gill tissue to varying haline aquatic environments ; and the role of intracellular compartment kinetics in the ionic balance of mangroves to varying haline environments.

Teaching Interests

Freshman biology for majors, Cell and Molecular Biology, Developmental Physiology and Biochemistry.
