Donna M. Krizman
Trainee (2003-2006)
|
Donna received her M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Virginia Tech in May 1992 and her B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Virginia Tech in May 1983. Earlier in her Virginia Tech career, Donna was a Patricia Roberts Harris Fellow, an AAUW Returning Student Scholar, and a member of Eta Kappa Nu honorary society. She is a member of the IEEE and ASEE.
Donna spent several years with the U.S. Navy as a field engineer and program manager working on surface sonar systems. She has also held a number of positions in the telecommunications industry: Member of Technical Staff at Bell Laboratories, where she worked on mobile receiver decoding algorithms; Lead Engineer at Triton Network Systems, a broadband wireless startup, where she worked on amplifier and link performance issues; Staff Engineer at Lockheed Martin Global Telecommunications, where she developed system requirements for a broadband satellite network and developed a communication system traffic model and tool to provide estimates of channel loading due to management, signaling and user traffic flow through the system and between the system and its external interfaces.
Donna's hobbies include golf, wine tasting, college football, and Disney park-hopping.
