about

education

I obtained a physics PhD at Stanford University in the group of Monika Schleier-Smith. In my PhD work, I designed and built a platform for quantum simulation and metrology. Currently, I am working as a postdoc in the group of Markus Greiner on quantum simulation with magnetic atoms in an optical lattice. I have done my undergraduate studies at Trinity College at the University of Cambridge where I have obtained my BA and MSci (Part III) degrees in physics.
