About me

I am CEO and co-founder of QC Design, a quantum computing company that designs useful and scalable quantum computers.

Earlier, I headed Xanadu’s Architecture team, where I led the theoretical effort to design Xanadu’s quantum computer and to chart the path to quantum advantage with photonics.

My postdoctoral research focussed on quantum computing. My colleagues and I performed the world-record tomography of a 14-qubit computer, and we devised novel optical quantum simulators.

My PhD focussed on powerful new methods for the design, characterization and simulation of photonic quantum computers.

I am an author of a book under contract with Cambridge University Press. This book explains the counter-intuitive properties of quantum physics requiring minimal mathematics background. An open-access outline is available on arXiv:1806.09958.
