Title Assistant Professor Education D.Phil. Physics – University of Oxford, Oxford, UK, 2018 Previous Experience I started academic research while earning my bachelor’s degree. Since then, I have constantly explored various areas of modern theoretical physics. I have worked in Mathematical Physics, Particle Physics, Gravitational Physics, Statistical Mechanics, and Quantum Information Science. In 2018 I became “Power of Information” Templeton Independent Research Fellow at the Complexity Sciences Center, University of California, Davis, led by James Crutchfield. In 2021 I was then hired by the “InQubator for Quantum Simulations” led by Martin Savage at the University of Washington. In 2022 I took a year-long career break to support my wife’s academic career. In that time, I co-founded Kernel Science – A company delivering highly specialized R&D and Data Analyses services. After this career break, in 2023 I resumed my academic path with a postdoctoral fellowship at the Department of Mathematics, University of Trieste. In 2024 I was then hired by UMBC to lead a group in Theoretical Aspects of Quantum Information Science. Professional Interests I am interested in the Physics of Information: How are the physics and energetics of many-body systems related to the information-theoretic resources they exhibit? Attempts to answer this question have led me to adopt an inherently interdisciplinary research approach. My work often combines numerical and analytical techniques to tackle outstanding foundational issues in physics and more applied, technology-oriented, problems. |
