Hi, I’m Aggie! I’m a physicist in the wild.

After my PhD, I spent 10 years in academia doing quantum research, then 4 years in quantum tech (things move ~2.5x faster in industry, so let’s call it even!). Now I’m building my own company.


The backstory

What do you do if you:

  • love foundational research but also like making things with immediate impact
  • don’t want to stay in academia but want the intellectual freedom it gives
  • want to run your own company, but you don’t want to answer to investors?

You reimagine what it means to start a lifestyle business. A business that gives you the flexibility to do the kind of work that you care about. Work that gives you energy, instead of draining it. Work that aligns with your passions and values.

That’s what I’m doing now. My company is called Aggie Branczyk Enterprises and it’s my platform for exploring various ventures, from research, to software, to quantum tech, to education.
