I am working with Prof. Daniel G. Aliaga and affiliated with the CGV Lab. My research interests are computer graphics and computer vision, including image-based rendering and modeling, 3D acquisition for moving and deforming objects and for objects with complex optical effects, interactive computer graphics and computational photography. In Summer and Fall 2008, I visited MERL as a research intern hosted by Dr. Amit Agrawal.

I served as the Publicity Chair on the I3D 2009 conference committee. I am also a Program Committee (PC) Member for I3D 2009 and I3D 2010 .
