I am a CS Ph.D. candidate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison advised by Aws Albarghouthi. I develop tools and techniques for compiling quantum programs to native device instructions.

I earned a B.S. in Computer Science and Math at Harvey Mudd College, where I worked on quantitative program analysis with Lucas Bang and the ALPAQA group.
