I am a research scientist at IBM Quantum. I was previously an IQIM postdoctoral scholar at the Institute for Quantum Information and Matter, California Institute of Technology. I got my Ph.D. in physics in 2021 from the University of Maryland, where I was fortunate to have been advised by Alexey Gorshkov and Bill Fefferman and I greatly enjoyed being a part of QuICS. Prior to that, I was at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur for a combined bachelor’s and master’s in physics.
