About myself
Since 2023 I am a research associate and doctoral candidate in the Quantum Computing Group of Prof. Mendl. Before, I have obtained a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Physics from RWTH Aachen University, where I have set a focus on Quantum Technologies. Have a look at my LinkedIn profile for my previous work experiences.
Currently, I am interested in topics of quantum algorithms for quantum chemistry, tensor network methods, and (quantum) machine learning.
If you are interested in working with me, feel free to send me an e-mail with some information about your research interest, technical background and CV. Open student projects are listed on our group's website.
