My name is Qanit Takmeel. I am a Materials Scientist by profession and presently, I work as a Sr. Member of Technical Staff, Module Process Engineering, at Applied Materials.
I obtained my PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Florida in 2016. I worked extensively on catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells, but as a side project, ended up working on MIMCAPS (Metal-Insulator-Metal Capacitors).
Why Quantitative Quill? I love numbers. Hence Quantitative. I like writing and much of this blog will have text on it – hence Quill. I am fully aware of the fact that I am typing down these words, but Quantitative Quill has a better alliterative feel to it than Quantitative Keyboard or something.
On this webpage, I am aiming to explore my curiosity with numbers. I’ll look at datasets, I’ll do a few simulations here or there. In general, my attempts have always been to view the world through the lens of numbers and statistics – and that is what I wish to do.
Below is a version of my AI avatar. Feel free to ask questions – hopefully, you can have some fun along the way.
And thanks for stopping by.
