My research is at the intersection of photonics and computing, exploring how the unique advantages of manipulating and moving information in the optical domain can enable transformative computational performance gains with ultra-efficient energy consumption.

FOE was an opportunity to become completely immersed for three days among a truly diverse group of the very brightest engineer-scholars. The experience enabled in depth exploration of how multiple disciplines could be brought to bear on the most pressing technical challenges. The close interactions with colleagues have forged friendships that will last and flourish throughout my career.
