She then moved to the University of Wisconsin - Madison for doctoral work, and upon completing her thesis in 1988 accepted a position in the chemistry department at UMass Boston. Her primary teaching responsibility during those years has been the sophomore level organic chemistry sequence. She is very interested in instructional technology and educational research, and sees OCW as a natural offshoot of those interests.
