Curriculum Summary
- I have experience leading all aspects of scientific research, program management, and business development.
- Currently I am the tech advocate of QuEra Computing, where I also manage strategic government relations.
- I coordinate multi-party research teams at the boundary of academia and industry.
- I led the design of the first industry-grade course on quantum computing with neutral atoms, with hundreds of trainees.
- I marketed and developed the user base of the world's first publicly accessible neutral-atom quantum computer.
- Previously, I directed multi-faculty teams in a major research program at the University of British Columbia.
- My further professional interests include talent acquisition and retention, and how it impacts organizations.
- I held postodctoral fellowships at the Institut Quantique (Québec) and Quantum Matter Institute (British Columbia).
- I have PhD in Physics, obtained from the University of Campinas (Brazil) and UIUC (Illinois).
- I obtained my BSc in Physics also in Campinas (Brazil), where I graduated at the top of my class.
- My favorite scientific contributions are predicting material signatures of chiral anomaly phenomena (verified experimentally) and proposing a non-topological mechanism for anyonic qubits.
- More recently, I am working on applications of quantum computing in simulations, optimization, and machine learning.
