Interests

Visual Computing

I am currently studying Computer Graphics and Computational Photography at Simon Fraser University. I am interested in differentiable rendering and 3D scene reconstruction, which relates to my prior experience with raytracing. I am excited to continue studying these topics and hope to pursue a career in a related field of research. My current experience includes an introductory course in Visual Computing and several years spent working on personal interest projects.
