About me

I am an Assistant Professor of Physics at Oklahoma State University, leading a Theoretical Quantum Science group.

I previously held postdoctoral positions at JILA (CU Boulder) working in the group of Ana Maria Rey, and at MPI (Dresden) working with Roderich Moessner.

I am an AMO and condensed matter theorist, broadly interested in quantum many-body physics and quantum simulation. A main driving motivation of my theoretical work is to provide insightful explanations for experimental results and actionable realistic proposals for applications and exploration of fundamental physics. I much enjoy collaboration with experimental groups, and my work is often guided by recent novel experimental capabilities, and attempts to open up practical new avenues for advancing quantum simulation, information and metrology in ultra-cold atomic and molecular setups.

Below you will find further information on some of my research. In particular, the research subpages include a more general introduction to select topics, links to the publications, presentation slides and recorded talks.

Please feel free to explore my site, and get in touch if you are interested in some of the things you discover.
