Biography

I work as a "quantum" software engineer at the Hartree Centre (STFC) in the UK. I am also a visiting research fellow affiliated with the University of Cambridge - Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry - fostering theoretical and computational chemistry research in partnership with STFC. Currently, I collaborate with IBM Quantum (Switzerland, UK and Ireland), AstraZeneca, and Algorithmiq.

I am a core developer of Qiskit Machine Learning, a community product that can help you build and run machine learning workloads on quantum computers seamlessly using Qiskit.
