Princeton, New Jersey, United States
Hi! I am a quantum engineer at Rigetti Computing working to improve quantum processor performance through design optimization. I previously conducted research in Professor Andrew Houck's Lab at Princeton University regarding qubit lifetime improvement with low-frequency transmons. At Princeton, I studied quantum science and engineering from Fall 2021 to Spring 2026, receiving a B.S.E. and M.Eng. in Electrical and Computer Engineering. As the former vice president of the Quantum Coalition and president of Princeton Students in Quantum, I've also developed leadership skills in the quantum space. I am passionate about music composition and performance as well!
Using superconducting chip design, simulation, and optimization to enhance quantum integrated circuit (QuIC) performance.
Achieved significant design-to-simulation workflow speedup (ranging from 16x to 30x) by automating HFSS simulation. Led HPC integration into design workflow. Optimized design parameters for qubit coherence and readout that propagated to significant improvements in measured devices.
ECE206: Contemporary Logic Design - Lead two lab sessions per week for ~15 undergraduates per session. Grade labs, homework, and exams. (Fall ‘25) ECE203: Electronic Circuit Design, Analysis and Implementation - Lead one lab session per week for ~20 undergraduates per session. Grade labs, homework, and exams. (Spring ‘26)
Working to design, fabricate, and test 2D superconducting transmon qubits with a low operating frequency to study and improve qubit coherence times and operation fidelity. Measured state-of-the-art (>1 ms) qubit lifetimes on fabricated designs. Fabricated and measured devices for quantum sensing project using offset-charge-sensitive transmons. Research (undergrad, master's) co-advised by Professor Andrew Houck and Professor Nathalie De-Leon.
