About me

The curiosity behind the work.

From physics experiments to semiconductor engineering, I’m learning how to move between fundamental questions and practical hardware.

Hello, I’m Piyush

A physicist drawn to making things work.

I grew up in Mumbai and graduated from Purdue University in 2026 with a B.S. in Physics and a certificate in Quantum Information Science and Technology. Working on quantum materials taught me to question a result, refine an experiment, and keep going when the answer is unclear.

I’m now studying Semiconductor Engineering at Northeastern University in Boston, concentrating in Devices & Nanosystems. My interests include semiconductor devices, fabrication, analog and RF circuits, and quantum hardware.

As a Graduate Student Researcher in the Ebrahimi Lab, I’m developing adaptive RFIC-based control for superconducting transmon qubits, combining multi-level quantum modeling, microwave pulse simulation, and evaluation of cryogenic hardware architectures.

I value both the theory behind a physical effect and the hands-on work needed to measure and use it.

Outside the lab

Chess, reading, the gym, and travel help me find new perspectives. I’ll share research milestones and occasional life updates in my blog ↗.
