I am a graduate student working on the strontium 3D lattice clock, where we study many-body phenomena to understand and enhance the performance of atomic clocks. I received my master's degree at the Max-Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) in Immanuel Bloch's group implementing optical tweezers for a fermionic quantum processor.
