In my current role as a quantum research engineer, I research and develop new technologies for quantum communication and sensing applications. In this role, I have the opportunity to lead programs that address difficult engineering challenges, generate new patents, and write proposals for large programs. In previous roles, I have worked on increasing the survivability of space vehicles in different radiation environments (Nuclear Hardening and Shielding) and conducted requirements testing for aerospace applications. I received my B.S. in Physics in 2015 and completed my PhD in Electrical Engineering in 2022. My PhD dissertation focused on the measurement and detection of single-photon correlations.
