From computer science
to quantum questions.
My background combines Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, followed by an honours degree in Computer Science. Today, I’m pursuing an MSc in Physics at Stellenbosch University, researching evolutionary approaches to quantum circuit design.
I enjoy understanding how things work — and building the systems that put that understanding to use.
