My education includes a BS in physics from the Carnegie Institute of Technology, an MS in Electrical Engineering and a PhD in physics from the Univ. of Pittsburgh in 1972.

I was a lecturer in physics at Princeton Univ. from 1972 to 1976 and an assistant professor at the Univ. of Pittsburgh from 1976 to 1978. I then joined the Westinghouse R&D Center where I worked on modeling magnetic materials and electrical devices from 1978 to 1989. I joined North American Transformer, now Waukesha Electric Systems, in 1989 where I developed transformer computer models and design tools.

I have authored numerous papers on magnetics and eddy current analysis, including an article on magnetostatics for the Encyclopedia of Applied Physics. I have written many papers on transformers and am the principle author of a book on transformers, "Transformer Design Principles", Taylor & Francis, New York, NY, 2001.

I am an active member of the IEEE Transformers Committee and was a technical advisor for the US delegation to the IEC. I have served on a Cigre committee for developing short circuit withstand criteria for transformers.
