I received my B.Sc. in mathematics & physics from McGill University in 2015. I stayed for two more years to complete an M.Sc. in physics. I moved to CU Boulder for a Ph.D. program in the fall of 2017, and work on theoretical AMO physics for Prof. Rey's group.

My interests include strongly interacting many-body systems, dissipative dynamics and entanglement generation. My current project combines several of these aspects by working on exchange dynamics of strontium in a 3D optical lattice. I investigate the effects of strong repulsive interactions in tandem with spin-orbit coupling and single-particle physics to realize useful, highly entangled states.
