Senior Research Software Development Engineer

About

I am a computational physicist with a background in condensed matter theory and high performance computing. I develop computer simulations in order to understand and predict the properties of quantum systems ranging from semiconductor/superconductor devices to strongly correlated materials. Additionally, my research interests include the use of quantum algorithms to simulate quantum many body systems.

Before joining the Quantum Architectures and Computation group (QuArC) at Microsoft Research, I obtained a PhD from ETH Zurich in Switzerland and was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Sherbrooke in Canada.
