About Me
I am a Stamps President's Scholar at the Georgia Institute of Technology. I study computer science, with concentrations in theory and artificial intelligience. Additionally, I am working towards two minors, one in mathematics and one in physics.
I hope to obtain a PhD and pursue a career in academia, with a focus on algorithms for novel architectures. Presently, my research interests lie in quantum information science and applying quantum algorithms to physical sciences.

Writing & Activities
I write content for Q-munity Tech. My past work include, but are not limited to:
Regular blog posts on quantum information science developments, educational resources, and applications. A few select articles are included below.
Creation of quantum computing courses and resources.
Featured courses are included below. Several are written in collaboration with other members of the Q-munity Tech team.
I am currently leading the development of a business-oriented course for companies looking to get involved with the quantum industry.
Additionally, I am editor-in-chief of The Tower Undergraduate Research Journal at Georgia Tech. Access our website here.
