Adam finished his general education in Vilnius, Lithuania and enrolled into Heriot-Watt to do an undergraduate physics degree. As a part of this, he simulated waveguide structures such as waveguide interferometers for refractive index sensing applications during a 4th year Bachelor project. Adam also studied Gaussian beam shaping using special profile lenses and did empirical verification of axicon beam near-field simulations during his 5th year Masters project at Heriot-Watt.

After graduating from the Masters Physics degree at Heriot-Watt with 1st Honors, Adam joined LUPO to develop high-brightness DUV sources as part of the UCARE project. He is currently interested in using four-wave mixing inside hollow-core anti-resonant fibres to generate DUV light.
