About me

​I am a theoretical physicist broadly interested in the physics of strongly correlated systems and quantum computing, especially the theory of quantum error correction. Most recently, I am exploring novel ways in which research in these two fields can compliment each other.

​Before joining the University of Oxford, I obtained a Bachelor and Master of physics from RWTH Aachen university, and a PhD degree from TU Dresden, where I worked with my advisor Roderich Moessner at the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems.
