A bit about me

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at MIT, and a member of the Laboratory for Electromagnetic and Electronic Systems (LEES).  I received the B.S. degree from Boston University, and the S.M. and Ph.D. degrees from MIT, all in Electrical Engineering. 

My interests include the design of electronic systems, controls, and instrumentation, and their application to a wide variety of engineering problems. Much of my ongoing research focuses on power electronics.  Power electronic circuits process and control electrical energy, and their design is a major consideration in all kinds of systems.  To learn more about the research carried out by my group, see my research page, the LEES web site, or look at some of my publications. 

I teach the graduate power electronics course (6.334) at MIT.  I am also involved in the undergraduate core circuits and electronics class (6.002).  For more information about my teaching activities, see my teaching page.
