Quantum error correction & fault tolerance · Quantum algorithms & control
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of New Mexico and a member of the Center for Quantum Information and Control (CQuIC). My research focuses on theoretical quantum computing, particularly quantum error correction and fault-tolerant quantum computing, quantum algorithms for simulation and open-system dynamics, and quantum control and noise suppression.
Prior to joining UNM in 2020, I was a postdoctoral associate at MIT, and before that I received my Ph.D. from the University of Southern California in 2018. I am a recipient of the DOE Early Career Research Award (2025) and the NSF CAREER Award (2023), and I currently serve as an editor for Quantum.
We study methods for reducing the resource overhead of fault-tolerant quantum computation, including flag techniques, syndrome extraction, and fault-tolerant implementations of logical operations.
We develop and analyze quantum algorithms and their limitations, with interests in quantum simulation and open-system dynamics, variational algorithms, quantum optimal transport, and computational complexity.
We develop methods for robust quantum control and noise suppression, including randomized and high-order dynamical decoupling, robust pulse design, and connections between quantum control and quantum simulation.
