My personal portfolio website
I am a Ph.D. student in Electrical and Computer Engineering, with a focus in Quantum Sciences, at the University of California, Los Angeles. I study formal methods to prove quantum advantage through inspiration from physics and computer science. My advisor is Prof. Leo Zhou.
I received my master’s degree in Quantum Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines, under the advisement of Dr. Eliot Kapit. I did my undergraduate in Computer Science at Mines as well. I was previously a researcher at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, in the Complex Systems Simulation and Optimization group.
It seems like everyone successfully navigating the modern research landscape has one of these. This is my attempt to avoid long-term local minima in this area.
My name is Caleb Rotello; I am currently a Ph.D. student at UCLA in ECE. I am interested in the design of quantum algorithms through inspiration from physics and computer science, classical and quantum problem hardness, and quantum optimization.
I am a Colorado native who grew up in (what used to be) North Denver farming community. I enjoy hiking, skiing, bouldering, rock climbing, mountain biking, caving, and golf. I also enjoy poetry (writing and reading it), psychology, composing music, classic literature, and learning languages (although I am barely lingual).
Although slow to respond, I am always happy to grow my network. Either email works!
