About me

 Curriculum Vitae (Click here for the PDF)


I am a PhD student in the Quantum Information group of Jens Eisert at Freie Universität Berlin.

My research spans Quantum Information Theory and Quantum Computing, with a current focus on:

  • Quantum learning theory
  • Quantum computation with fermions, bosons, and the structure of Gaussian states
  • The algebraic and representation-theoretic structure of the Clifford group
  • Noise in quantum circuits, classical simulation, and fault tolerance

I love combining rigorous mathematical tools—such as representation theory, matrix analysis, and statistical learning theory—with applied numerical methods to tackle practically motivated problems.
