I am a DPhil student co-supervised by Dr. Joe Goodwin in the Department of Physics and Prof. Bálint Koczor in the Mathematical Institute. I study how to apply theoretical quantum computing techniques to real experiments, and how to optimally design experimental setups given the theoretical protocols. In particular, I am interested in networked ion trap architectures, where trapped-ion quantum processing units (QPUs) of moderate scale are interconnected via optical fiber links. With this hardware architecture in mind, my research considers near-term applications by applying quantum error mitigation (QEM) techniques and more long-term hardware designs that take suitable quantum error correction (QEC) codes into consideration.
Before joining Oxford, I obtained a BSc degree in physics and math from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and a MSc degree in quantum engineering from ETH Zurich. I have previously been affiliated with the Theoretical Quantum Physics Laboratory in RIKEN, the Center for Computational Mathematics of Flatiron Institute, and IBM Quantum.
