Biography
I am a quantum information scientist and leader of the Quantum Engineering Group. I study experimental and theoretical aspects of solid-state spins and photons. I develop systems, tools, and protocols with hybrid physical components that enable a fundamental understanding of the interaction of few and many quantum objects, with an eye to the development of quantum computing, communication, and simulation technologies.
I hold a Royal Society University Research Fellowship on "Quantum interface engineering with solid-state spins and photons" and a UKRI New Investigator Award on "Deterministic quantum gate between photons in a next-generation light-matter interface". I lead the QuantERA consortium MEEDGARD on “Memory-enhanced entanglement distribution with gallium arsenide quantum dots”.
My previous positions include an Associate Professorship of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford with a Tutorial Fellowship at Balliol College (2022-2023) and a Junior Research Fellowship at St John’s College in Cambridge (2017-2021). I completed my PhD at the MIT Center for Ultracold Atoms in 2016.
