About me

Hello.

I am a second-year doctoral student at the Joint Center for Quantum Information and Computer Science (QuICS) at the University of Maryland, College Park. My current research interest is in quantum computing, cryptography and their interplay. I am also interested in quantum optimization and machine learning.

Prior to Maryland, I graduated in May 2020 with Bachelor of Arts in the interdisciplinary major of Mathematics and Computer Science from Reed College. I previously did some research in differential privacy and statistics, advised by Adam Groce and Andrew Bray. My thesis is on Area Law for Local Hamiltonians, advised by Jamie Pommersheim.
