Research Scientist

My research lies at the intersection of quantum physics and computational science. Specifically, I am interested in  quantum computation realized in quantum many-body systems at low temperature, and its applications in quantum simulation and quantum machine learning. 

Recent research highlight:

  • Ancillary entangling Floquet kicks for accelerating quantum algorithms, (2024)
  • Variational quantum regression algorithm with encoded data structure,  (2023)

     

  • R&D Staff Scientist, 91°µÍø (2022-now)
  • Sr. Advanced Data Scientist/Applied Machine Learning Researcher, Acxiom, IPG  (2017 -2021)
  • Acoustic R&D Data Scientist (Data and Physical modeling), Formation Evaluation Group, ETC, Chevron (2014-2015)
  • Senior Postdoctoral Scientist (Modeling on novel quantum materials), T4 Group, Los Alamos National Laboratory (2013-2014) 
  • Postdoctoral Fellow on (Physical modeling on Quantum Analog Computation with cold ions), Department of Physics, Georgetown University (2009-2012)
