About Me
I received my bachelor's degrees in Computer Science, Physics, and Mathematics from the University of Iowa in May 2025. My academic journey reflects my passion for understanding both the theoretical foundations and practical applications of technology.
Research Interests
My primary research focus is on quantum computing, where I explore the intersection of theoretical physics and computational science. I'm particularly interested in how quantum algorithms can solve problems that are intractable for classical computers, and how we can bridge the gap between theoretical quantum mechanics and practical quantum computing applications.
