About me
I am a quantum computing research student focused on quantum simulation, photonic quantum computing, and quantum machine learning. My competition and research highlights include winning IEEE Quantum Week 2026 Best Paper, MIT iQuHACK 2025, MIT iQuHACK 2026, Quandela Perceval Challenge, the Classiq Mega Challenge, and SCMP Student of the Year in Scientist & Mathematician. I am currently an intern in Quandela and the Cavendish Laboratory, working on photonics-related research and Hamiltonian simulation. Passionate about bridging real life applications with quantum computing, I remain committed to collaboration, continuous learning, and developing innovative solutions for complex challenges.
