Steven earned his Bachelor from Ecole Normale Superieure Paris-Saclay and his PhD from Yale University from the group of Michel Devoret. His work focused on stabilizing bosonic codes in superconducting circuits. He then did a post-doc at the National University of Singapore on quantum information processing with neutral Strontium atoms. Steven also worked as a consultant for quantum computing companies Alice&Bob and Xanadu. In 2021, Steven was awarded the National Research Foundation Fellowship (Class of 2022) to start a new research initiative in Singapore focusing on building quantum networks of superconducting circuits. He was then appointed as a Presidential Young Professor in the departments of Material Science and Engineering as well as the department of Physics.
