PhD Student
About
Luke is a first-year physics PhD student at UCSB. In 2023 he graduated with a dual degree in mathematics and physics from Yale, where he worked under Michel Devoret while studying parametric processes in superconducting circuits. Before coming to UCSB he worked under Steven Girvin to design state preparation protocols using continuous variable quantum algorithms. He is passionate about the intersection of theory and experiment and is excited to work at this interface during his PhD. Outside of the lab he enjoys playing piano, throwing frisbee, and listening to others share their life stories.
