About me

I work on the intersection of 3D Graphics and Generative AI - a field that is challenging but exciting.

Currently, I'm a full-time XR engineer at Samsung Research America, where I contribute to the XR headset and AI glasses.

I earned both my CS Master and Bachelor's degree at Georgia Tech. A special thanks to my advisor Prof. Greg Turk who made computer graphics fascinating for me.

To list some of my previous works, I have done a Vulkan based VST compositor, Genshin-Impact style shading, and a diffusion model for generating images with text guidance and control.

A little fun fact about me: I'm a non-traditional student who started college in my early 30s, and those pre-college adventures have filled me with some unique technical vision.
