I have received the Diploma of Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. I hold a M.Sc. degree in Communication Engineering from the Microwaves and Communication Systems group of the University of Manchester, UK and a Ph.D. degree in Electronic Engineering from the Antennas and Electromagnetics Group of the Queen Mary, University of London, UK. After completion of my PhD studies , I accepted a Postdoctoral Fellowship position in the University of Texas at Austin, USA at the Metamaterials and Plasmonics Research Laboratory. Next, I worked as a Postdoctoral Associate in the Center for Metamaterials and Integrated Plasmonics at Pratt School of Engineering, Duke University, USA. Then, I was hired as Assistant Professor and promoted to Associate Professor at University of Nebraska-Lincoln Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Currently, I am an Associate Professor at the Pennsylvania State University Department of Electrical Engineering and also serving as College of Engineering Liaison to the Applied Research Laboratory.
