Biography
I am a quantum information scientist, studying how to manipulate atoms and photons to process information. My goal is to determine the ultimate power of quantum computers and other technologies that rely on quantum coherence and entanglement. While being a theoretician, I often work with experimentalists that test our understanding of quantum laws in the lab.
