July 2010 - Present

Engineering Management and Systems Engineering Department

Old Dominion University, Norfolk, VA 23529

Taught courses in Engineering Ethics, Leadership for Engineers, and developed a new course for Human System Engineering. Advised students in the Doctor of Philosophy and Doctor of Engineering programs. Submitted proposal and performed research in the areas of Human System Architectures, Simulation and Analysis of Human Systems, and Decision Support Systems.

Principal Investigator                                                                                                               

February 2002 - July 2010

Pacific Science and Engineering Group

9180 Brown Deer Road, San Diego, CA 92121

Applied system engineering principles and experience in computational modeling to conduct research and perform analysis on challenging problems of complex organizational systems. Research included developing models and algorithms with variables such as cultural differences in workplace processes. Analyzed organizational architectures to illustrate how to modify role relationships as organizations adapt to environmental changes, and has identified metrics to evaluate distributed role performance. Developed human view representations to augment system engineering design products to represent and simulate human-system interactions in large-scale military applications.

September 1996 - March 1999

System Architectures Laboratory

George Mason University, Fairfax, VA 22030

Conducted basic research in the areas of distributed decision-making, organizational design, and model driven experimentation using system and software systems engineering concepts. Designed executable models using Colored Petri nets for analysis of organizational architectures performing military scenarios using both structured analysis and object-oriented approaches.

Electronic Meeting Room Program Coordinator                                               

January 1995 - December 1995

University of Hawaii at Manoa

College Business Administration, Honolulu, Hawaii 96822

Responsible for the administration and facilitation of meetings held in the Electronic Meeting Room. GroupSystems software was used in the meetings to improve group dynamics and meeting outcomes. Classes used Lotus Notes software as an electronic medium for discussions and assignments.

Senior Field Application Engineer                                                                            

November 1989 - March 1993

Raytheon Company

Semiconductor Division, Mountain View, California 94039

Provided technical support to the European sales staff on Raytheon's digital, linear, and mixed signal gate arrays and standard cell products, including technical presentations, tutorials, and seminars at the customer's location as well as design feasibility studies and circuit simulation and implementation. Worked closely with the factory on new product development and technical writing.

CMOS Application Engineer                                                                                            

May 1988 - November 1989

Raytheon Company

Semiconductor Division, Mountain View, California  94039

Performed front end operations on VLSI circuits that were implemented as Raytheon gate arrays or standard cell circuits, including schematic capture on CAD systems, simulation, critical path evaluation, power calculations, pinouts, and bonding diagrams. Developed the software library cells and macro functions for the CMOS 1.25u process and the accompanying data sheets and documentation as well as evaluating and adapting CAD software programs.

Design Engineer                                                                                                                          

 August 1984 - April 1988

Raytheon Company

Submarine Signal Division, Portsmouth, Rhode Island 02871

Designed, tested, and simulated various modules and baseplates for military systems including a parallel/serial interface card for a weapons simulator, a passive baseplate for a sonar trainer, and a display data conditioner card for a radar system. Rotated through systems, software, and manufacturing engineering as part of the Professional Intern program working on system test for a fire control system, software initialization program for a sonar project, and engineered printed wiring board production for a mine hunting system, respectively. Member of the design team for the FPMAK VHSIC chip and was responsible for the design of the self-test circuitry.
