Research Focus

I’m a second-year Ph.D. student in the Department of Physics and Astronomy and do my research at the Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute.

My research focuses on Majorana Fermions in semiconductor/superconductor structures. These strange particles can be measured and manipulated in carefully engineered electron gasses proximitized by a standard s-wave superconductor. Because of their non-local nature, Majorana Fermions hold the potential for fault-tolerant quantum computing.

In my free time, I greatly enjoy long bike rides and hiking in the summer. I also enjoy meeting up with friends for a beer at the local bar or going out for dinner.
