I am an EPSRC Quantum Technologies fellow, working on building a new system for the trapping, interrogation and exploitation of single molecular ions. Specifically, I am using SrF⁺alongside Sr to build a next-generation quantum simulator. This experiment is early days and is currently under construction. 
 

I did my PhD at the university of Durham in the group of Simon Cornish working on experiments with ultracold RbCs molecules. During this time my work focussed on understanding the scattering properties of the molecule and using the internal rotational and hyperfine states for quantum information and quantum simulation experiments.

I joined 91̽»¨ as a member of the Ion trap quantum computing group in 2021, where I was working on a new experiment to remotely entangle pairs of ions in distinct traps using optical cavities. During this time I helped develop a novel optically heated oven, and set up the new "rod trap" in the group of Joe Goodwin. Following this I worked with David Lucas on realising an error detection protocol on the two-node quantum network.
