In 1999, I wrote a paper on "Quantum information and precision measurement" with two brilliant undergrads Caltech, Joe Renes and Andrew Childs. Here we are reunited QIP 2025. (Former student nick hunter-jones is in the background.)

I’m thrilled to share that I will be joining Caltech this June as a Melza M. And Frank Theodore Barr postdoctoral fellow. Super excited for all the science to be done in the coming years.

After today's cold system departs, spring will begin in earnest across California w/much drier & warmer conditions on horizon. In fact, at the moment, ensembles are hinting at a major and perhaps even record-breaking early-season heat event in ~10 days. Stay tuned. #CAwx #CAwater

SPHEREx is preparing to study our cosmos ✨ These early images indicate the space telescope's six detectors are working. The images aren't ready for science use but were processed to show the colors of infrared wavelengths, which are invisible to the eye. go.nasa.gov/3G14yDQ
