What I'm looking for

I seek research or applied roles combining quantum and computational physics with AI, opportunities for publication and collaboration, and positions that value teaching, clear technical communication, and remote or Minnesota-based work.

I am a Ph.D. physicist specializing in quantum mechanics, computational physics, and applied mathematics, with a strong record of research, publications, and conference presentations.

I design and implement computational models using Python and MATLAB to study complex physical systems and have led interdisciplinary research projects from hypothesis through publication.

As an experienced educator and mentor, I have supported undergraduate instruction, developed supplemental learning materials, and provided one-on-one tutoring to strengthen student understanding.

I am currently completing a Master’s in Artificial Intelligence, and I seek roles that combine physics expertise, computational modeling, AI applications in physical sciences, academic writing, or STEM quality assurance.
