I am broadly interested in quantum information and mathematical physics, especially topics related to quantum complexity, and am also involved in various teaching and outreach activities. My CV is available here if you want to see a more complete list of what I've worked on. Below are some of the highlights!


Research

Decay of spurious topological entanglement entropy in the trivial phase (TBA)

Teaching and outreach

18.S097: Proof-Writing Workshop

I helped organize a proofs workshop which was offered as a 3-unit class during MIT's Independent Activities Period in January 2021. You can find my lecture notes here, or see the course website for the rest of the course materials.

HMMT Education

I gave a talk for high school students at the February and November 2021 iterations of the Harvard MIT Math Tournament on quantum mechanics and information theory. My slides are available here.
