Principal Research Engineer, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Served as Principal Research Scientist, and Director of the MIT/Industry Consortium on Advanced Automotive Electrical/Electronic Components and Systems, overseeing and supervising numerous contributing researchers.

Vice President and Chief Engineer, Kaman Electromagnetics Corporation, Hudson, MA

Established a functioning, professionally competent engineering organization. The organization was transformed from one in which only the founders could make technical decisions into one where a broad range of technical programs were conducted simultaneously, some without any direct input from the founders. The organization also grew by a factor of four in annual sales volume, and succeeded in transitioning from a purely contract R&D operation, with the Department of Defense as the principal customer, to a mixed business which in 1997 and 1998 derived more than half its revenues from the commercial sale of internally developed products. Program Manager for large development programs. Intellectual Property Officer.

Program Manager, Mechanical Engineer, General Electric Corporate Research and Development Center, Schenectady, NY

Led a number of advanced development projects in applied superconductivity, including the largest superconducting generator (20 MVA) to be operated at full load. Initiated the development work that led to General Electric's factory that produces the superconducting magnets for all of the company's medical nuclear magnetic resonance imaging products.

Research Engineer, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Technical contributions to construction and testing of an electric machine with a superconducting field windings.

Engineer, American Electric Power Corporation

Studies of hydraulic transients in a pumped-storage hydroelectric plant.

Engineer, Westinghouse Electric Corporation

Thermohydraulic design of nuclear power reactor cores.

Engineering Trainee, Bethlehem Steel Corporation

Varied technical duties in an integrated ore-to-finished-product steel mill.
