Before my appointment at the University of Ottawa, I taught various computer, communications, networking hardware and software design courses at both Carleton University and Algonquin college.

Before that, I worked for 15 years in design engineering and management in the high-tech industry in Ottawa, Canada. At BNR/Nortel, I designed ASICs, modules, boards, systems and software for wireless (e.g. CDMA) and optical networks (e.g. OC-48 and OC-192).I was an early employee and the Hardware Director for 3 years at Tropic Networks, a metro-area optical networking start-up company.
