Academic Achievements
- Recipient of Sloan Research Fellowship
- NSF CAREER Award
- AFOSR Young Investigator Program (YIP) Award
- Led development of quantum software projects: SimuQ (POPL 2024), QHDOPT, RISC-Q
- Proposed novel algorithms such as Quantum Hamiltonian Descent

Background
- Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Institute for Advanced Computer Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park
- Fellow at the Joint Center for Quantum Information and Computer Science (QuICS)
- Amazon Scholar at AWS Braket
- Research bridges theory and practice in quantum computing via full-stack software-hardware-algorithmic co-design
- Promotes the 'Hamiltonian-oriented Quantum Algorithm Design and Programming' paradigm, treating Hamiltonian evolution as central to end-to-end quantum application design
- Research interests include: practical quantum applications (optimization, machine learning, simulation), quantum system software (programming interfaces, real-time control systems, quantum OS/networks), automation/optimization of co-design using PL and ML, and robust control of quantum devices
