Hello, I'm currently a third-year PhD student in Computer Science at University of Maryland, College Park, advised by Ming C. Lin.

My research goal is to develop novel algorithms for simulation and rendering, by bridging classical geometric techniques and physically based modeling with learning-based paradigms and neural representations. Applications include spatial computing, AR/VR, and robotics.

I am interning on the Roblox Core AI team this summer. Previously, I interned at Google GeoAR, and worked as an Applied Scientist at AWS. I received an MS in Computer Science from NYU and a BA in Film Production from USC School of Cinematic Arts.
