Fred Howard who encouraged me to apply to Wakes MA program. In this program my love of math flourished and I had the opportunity to craft a masters thesis with Dr. Howard on the Fibonacci numbers mod m. I have since posted the results on the web, and to this day I still get people contacting me with interest and questions on this topic.With the wonderful experience of the MA program under my belt, I taught introductory statistics at Wake for one year. In 1997 I married Tara Cioffi (class of 1995), and we moved to Philadelphia where I completed a Ph.D. in Mathematics at Temple University. In 2002 I started teaching at Shippensburg University, located in central Pennsylvania. Shippensburg is one of 14 PA state schools. Of course, it is the best of the 14 .Mathematically, my interests lie in the area of enumerative combinatorics. Recently Ive research the ballot theorem and Ive been fortunate to have articles accepted by the American Mathematical Monthly and Mathematics Magazine.Personally, my greatest joy comes from my family which includes my daughter Olivia (born 2003) and my son Atticus (born 2005). We live in the small town of Carlisle where we enjoy walking to the park, the library, and the town square.

As a student at Wake Forest I was also a cadet in the ROTC department and I have been serving in the US Army Engineer Regiment ever since.I currently hold the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, and I plan to stay in the Army at least three more years to earn my retirement before starting a new career. In my 17 years in the Army I have spent seven years stationed in Germany and five years in Colorado Springs. I have deployed to Kuwait, Bosnia, Kosovo, and Iraq. I also earned a MS in Engineering Management from the University of Missouri Rolla and I am now teaching ROTC at Campbell University. Last updated January 2011.Cheryl Powell Fischer (1993, BS Mathematical Economics). After graduating from Wake in 1993, Cheryl went on to Georgetown to earn a Masters Degree in Foreign Service. She focused on International Business Diplomacy during her two years there. After Georgetown, Cheryl worked briefly for Arther Andersens transfer pricing consulting group in Washington, DC and then spent about seven years at US Airways in Arlington, VA. She spent a good portion of that time managing International Pricing for the airline. Cheryl married Brian Fischer in 1997 and now has two children, Craig and Kelly. Cheryl made a significant career decision in 2004 and went back to school part time to be certified to teach math. She was able to start teaching full time in Sept. 2004 and has been teaching since then 8212 one year in middle school and three years at the high school level. She is very happy with what she does, in spite of the fact that teaching is a challenging job She spends her free time watching many of her kids and students sporting events, as well as running, gardening, and sewing.
