About

I am a PhD student at TU Darmstadt working with Prof. Dr. Mariami Gachechiladze on methods for quantum certification, in particular using Machine Learning. Before that, I was a research assistant at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, where I worked on double-bracket quantum algorithms, algorithmic cooling and superconducting qubit hardware. I hold an MPhys in Physics from the University of Oxford.

In WiSe 2026/27 I am a tutor for Quantum Information Science (FB20 Informatik). Feel free to email me with questions regarding the course and exercise sheets.

I like research that sits between theory and experiment. Currently, I am looking into methods of using Machine Learning to characterise quantum channels in a SPAM-agnostic way.
