Bio

I'm the Head of Quantum Solutions at PsiQuantum, the company delivering the first utility-scale, fault-tolerant Quantum Computer. My work focuses on developing new disruptive applications with our customers and partners across the full spectrum of potential use cases. In this role, I am also co-leading our Qlimate initiative aiming to create highly impactful green tech applications with Gigaton decarbonization impact. Before joining PsiQuantum, I have been a consultant with McKinsey focusing on innovation in emerging tech and specifically quantum technologies, having advised clients in advanced industries, chemicals, agriculture and consumer packaged goods on the topics of strategy and innovation. I also have deep knowledge in R&D and product development. Prior to joining McKinsey, I attained a PhD in Experimental Physics from the University of Hamburg. I also have a love of all things Japanese and a Master of Arts in Japanese studies. In my personal time, I love to do lots of sports such as mountain biking and soccer and spend time with my family.
