I am a postdoctoral researcher in theoretical quantum physics. Using entanglement patterns as an organizing principle, my research focuses on understanding collective and emergent phenomena in quantum many-body physics.

A recurring theme in my recent work is the role of measurement. The availability of mid-circuit measurements in modern quantum devices provides a new setting in which many-body physics and quantum information can be explored beyond unitary dynamics. My work has shown that the interplay between entanglement and measurement has applications and intriguing implications across a broader range of physics, including simulation of dynamics and phases in quantum many-body systems.

My recent work studies:

• the construction of new entanglement patterns and their dynamics,
• the measurement-based quantum simulation program,
• practical aspects of adaptive quantum circuits.

I am currently a Focused Research Hub for Theoretical Physics (FRHTP) postdoctoral fellow at the Quantum New Mexico Institute (QNM-i), based at the Center for Quantum Information and Control (CQuIC) at the University of New Mexico.

I received my Ph.D. in Physics from the C. N. Yang Institute for Theoretical Physics (YITP) at Stony Brook University under the supervision of Tzu-Chieh Wei. Prior to that, I studied at the University of Tokyo, where I worked on string field theory with Yuji Okawa and taught high school students in the Tokyo area.
