I am an Assistant Professor in the Physics Department at the United States Naval Academy. My research is in the theory of quantum information and quantum computation, with a focus on quantum sensing and algorithms for quantum simulation.
Previously, I was a Harvard Quantum Initiative Prize Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University. I completed both my Ph.D. and B.S. in Physics at the University of Maryland, where I was a Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellow (CSGF), Joint Center for Quantum Information and Computer Science (QuICS) Lanczos Graduate Fellow, and Banneker/Key Scholar.
My work seeks to elucidate the interconnection between the limits of physics, measurement, and computation. In one direction, this means determining what information theory and computer science can tell us about physics and, more practically, showing how they can help us to design better measurement devices and better simulation algorithms. In the other direction, this means deciphering how the constraints imposed by specific physical systems (e.g., symmetries, spatial locality, and noise) impact information-theoretic and computational limits on data processing and extraction.
