About

I am a quantum measurement engineer at QuantWare in the QPU characterization team. I completed my PhD in Applied Physics from Colorado School of Mines in 2023, advised by Eliot Kapit. My thesis focused on the design of tunable couplers for 2D and 3D superconducting circuits and materials loss measurements for superconducting quantum computing. Following my PhD, I worked at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory as a staff scientist in the Quantum Coherent Device Physics Group.
