Professional Experience

8/00 - pres	Montana State University, Bozeman, MT. Associate Professor
	I conduct research and teach courses in the areas of microfabrication
	and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS).




9/94 - 8/00	Milli Sensor Systems & Actuators, Inc., West Newton, MA. Senior Project Engineer
	I was a project leader for numerous government sponsored programs.
	This job involved analyzing and modeling micromachined accelerometers
	and gyroscopes as well as writing proposals, maintaining budgets and
	writing reports.




6/85 - 9/94	Charles Stark Draper Laboratory, Cambridge, MA. Staff Physicist
	I investigated performance limiting factors for various optical
	gyroscopes and accelerometers.
