I completed the B.A.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees at the University of Toronto in 1997 and 2002 respectively. In 2001, I became an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Toronto and was promoted to Associate Professor in 2007. In 2008 I was a visiting researcher at the University of Pavia, Italy. In 2012, I became Professor and Associate Chair, Research for the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. I am also an occasional consultant to industry, having worked for both large and small semiconductor companies. I research mixed analog/digital integrated circuit design for signal processing and communication.

I am a Senior Member of the IEEE.  I co-authored the best paper at the 2005 Compound Semiconductor Integrated Circuits Symposium, the best student papers at the 2007, 2008, and 2011 Custom Integrated Circuits Conferences, and the best invited paper at the 2010 Custom Integrated Circuits Conference.  I am an appointed member of the Administrative Committee of the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society and the vice-president for regions 1-7 of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society. I have chaired the Analog Signal Processing Technical Committee and the Wireline Communications subcommittee of the Custom Integrated Circuits Conference.  In 2009 I was the Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Express Briefs and currently serve on the editorial board of the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits.  I am a member of the Technical Program Committees for both the VLSI Circuits Symposium and the International Solid-State Circuits Conference. I am a co-author, along with David Johns and Ken Martin, of the 2nd edition of the classic textbook "Analog Integrated Circuit Design".
