In Lucas's time at Stony Brook, they plan on studying quantum information science, with a focus on quantum networks, and advancing quantum education. In Lucas's free time, they like to workout, hang out with friends, and play music. Before becoming a Simons STEM Scholar, Lucas participated in their high school's science research program.
"I plan on pursuing my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and conducting research in quantum hardware. At the same time, I want to help make quantum science more accessible and approachable for younger students by building better educational tools and mentorship opportunities."
"I chose to become a Simons STEM Scholar because I wanted to join a community of driven students and mentors who value both academic excellence and the pursuit of real-world impact. There's no other place where I could've received as much support as I have from both staff and my peers."
