Postdoctoral Fellow.

My research is in theoretical quantum information. I aim to understand the quantum-physical limits to information processing and the ways to achieve them. Specifically, I work on quantum entropy inequalities, quantum error-correcting codes, and implementation schemes for quantum measurements.
I received my PhD from the University of Colorado Boulder, where I was co-advised by Manny Knill and Graeme Smith. I received an MS degree in physics and a BA degree in physics and mathematics from the University of Pennsylvania.
