I have been a research scientist in Reality Labs Research, Meta since 2019. I completed my Ph.D. at Georgia Tech, jointly advised by Prof. James Rehg, and Prof. Frank Dellaert. During my Ph.D., I am also fortunate to intern at Nvidia Research in the group of Jan Kautz and at Max Planck Institute with Prof. Andreas Geiger. I completed my Master's thesis under the supervision of Prof. Andrew Davison at Imperial College London.

Throughout my research, I have been obsessed with digitalizing the world in 3D and 4D as we humans are able to see using commodity camera sensing. I believe that augmented reality with 3D sensing and content that can work on small form factor devices will become ubiquitous and fundamentally change the way we interact with world and replay our memories.

Quote Steve Jobs' comments on GUI when he visited Xerox PARC in 1979:

Within 10 minutes, it was obvious to me that all computers would work like this someday. You could argue about how many number of years it would take, and you could argue about who the winners and the losers might be, but you couldn't argue about the inevitability.

I work on multidisciplinary field research and contribute to it. I love computer vision and visualizing things in 3D, with some of my work strongly related to computational photography, graphics, AI and robotics.
