I am a Physics PhD student in my fifth year at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.  My field of research is quantum information and quantum computing.  I work with Professors Robert Joynt, Sue Coppersmith, Eric Bach and Dr. Mark Friesen.

Recent research has included work on quantum algorithms for the graph isomorphism problem.  Currently, I am studying methods to optimize quantum state tomography.

I am also involved with the University of Wisconsin’s annual Wonders of Physics show (pictured above left).
