Featured Projects
ATLAS Telescope
Sep 2025 - Dec 2025
A low-cost, automated star-tracking telescope mount capable of programmatic camera control and real-time celestial localization for high-fidelity long-exposure photography.
Atomic Layer Etching (ALE) of Diamond via Alternating O₂/Ar Plasma
May 2026 - Aug 2026
Developed a cyclical, low-damage Atomic Layer Etching (ALE) plasma process to overcome surface roughness and subsurface lattice defects caused by traditional Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) on diamond quantum devices.
Diamond Surface & Graphitization Characterization for Quantum Emitters
May 2026 - Aug 2026
Investigated surface degradation and graphitic buildup resulting from high-temperature annealing (1300°C) during Silicon-Vacancy (SiV⁻) center activation, optimizing non-destructive plasma restoration methods.
KiCad + LTSpice = Guitar Hero??
Work in Progress
Currently designing a Pedal and an Amplifier for my Electric Guitar!
Research & Publications
A Compact, Portable Spectrometer for NMR Measurements in Undergraduate Education Labs
Jan 2026 - Jun 2026
Quorum-1, a low-cost, open-source, single-qubit Earth-field nuclear magnetic resonance platform designed for hands-on quantum education and adaptable to both spectroscopy and gradient-coil magnetic resonance imaging demonstrations.
A Low-Cost, Optically Detectable Magnetic Resonance Device
Jan 2026 - Jun 2026
Here we present Quorum-NV, an open-source, low-cost optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) device designed specifically for secondary, undergraduate, and hobbyist laboratory environments. Rather than targeting research-grade sensitivity, Quorum-NV is meant to be an instructional platform for introducing NV- center physics through direct experiment.
Real-Time RFI Mitigation via FPGA-Based Spectral Kurtosis
Jun 2025 - Aug 2025
Implemented real-time Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) detection algorithms on FPGA hardware using Spectral Kurtosis to automatically isolate and filter transient interference for radio astronomy signals.
