After briefly reviewing aspects of the holographic embedding of a semiclassical approximation to strongly coupled QCD in the light-front (Light-Front Holography [1]), we will show that half-integer eigenvalue equations in AdS space are equivalent to supersymmetric quantum mechanics in the light-front. This will allow us to describe the baryon spectrum by extending superconformal quantum mechanics to the light front and its embedding in AdS space which uniquely determines the effective confinement potential for arbitrary half-integer spin.
