I am a Fellow of the Soil Science Society of America and a recipient of the Outstanding Career Award from NMSU.  Additionally, I have received Patricia Christmore and NACTA teaching awards. I earned my PhD from the University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences in Vienna, in collaboration with UC Davis. I serve as an Editor of Soil Science Society America Journal. Throughout my career, I have traveled extensively and served as a visiting professor in China, India, Mexico, and the Netherlands. I have mentored several international visiting scientists, five postdoctoral researchers, more than 36 graduate students as Chair of the Graduate Committee, 50 additional students as a committee member, and about 100 undergraduate students.
