N. Zane Warriner, Ph.D. Email & Phone Number

Ph.D. in Optics and Photonics from NC State University, combining research, start-up experience, and teaching proficiency.As an researcher specializing in geometric- and dynamic-phase diffractive optical elements, my work has fostered productive collaborations with scientists, engineers, and industry players across various diverse sectors. I find it exciting that the applications of my work have allowed me to develop optics for cutting-edge near-eye displays as well as many of the world's most prominent telescopes for exoplanet imaging.With holistic experience in optical fabrication, metrology, and the design of optical systems, I am poised to be a valuable team player in tackling some of the biggest scientific challenges in the XR industry today. My passion for continuous learning drives my pursuit of new challenges and opportunities for growth.Let's connect and explore how we may constructively interfere to create a brighter future in the fascinating realm of optics.
