About Me
I obtained my PhD in May 2022 from the University of Arizona in Electrical and Computer Engineering. My research interests are at the intersection of cyber-physical systems, intelligent transportation, smart cities, and novel machine learning algorithms including quantum machine learning and quantum communication. My research is dedicated to enhancing the safety, resilience, security, and reliability of the nation's infrastructure and community. To accomplish my goals, I am exploring the synergy of computation, control, and communication.
