Industrial Collaboration

I am open to industry collaborations in the areas of motor drives with wide-bandgap devices, wireless power transfer and multilevel converters. In addition, I have experience in executing industry-funded projects in the US during my work at Maryland Power Electronics Laboratory, University of Maryland, College Park as a Postdoctoral Associate. More information about my current research and past research projects can be obtained from research.html and pastprojects.html, respectively.
