Research and Publications:

Significant research so far include

The perfect office.

• The joint proposal of continous variable cluster state computation.
• Work towards to geometric approach of quantum complexity.
• Development of mathematical evidence towards the existence of emergent physical laws - laws that govern macroscopic properties of physical systems that may not be logically proveable from fundamental laws.

Work Experience

1996-:  Webmaster of Infoceptor,

A Self-employed position initially developed as a hobby, evolving into a part-time job financed by online advertising. Job involved the writing of articles, editorials; graphics design; basic web programming  (PHP, MYSQL), and the organisation of staff members and online community events.

 2006:  First Year Physics Tutor – University of Queensland

Tutored first year physics (PHYSICS 1051).  Job involved taking weekly tutorials that complemented the lecturers on first year physics.

2007:  Physics Tutor:  -Duchene College 

Run a weekly tutorial on first year physics at one of the colleges at the university of Queensland.

 2007-2008:  Resident Physics/Mathematics/Compsci Tutor –International House

Residing at International House as the resident tutor for undergraduate and honours level courses in Physics and Mathematics, as well as undergraduate courses in computer science. Work involved talking to students in need of help, and organising tutorials for various undergraduate level courses, and revision lecture series when appropriate. 

2009 - Research Scientist Level A: –Center for Quantum Computer Technology

A formal research position at the National University of Singapore, where my primary goal is investigate whether quantum information processing plays a key role in certain biological processes.
