About me

I am a Research Scientist at NVIDIA Research, working on 3D reconstruction, generation and embodied AI. I received my Ph.D. degree from Johns Hopkins University on visual servoing for surgical robotics, advised by Dr. Russell H Taylor and co-advised by Dr. Mathias Unberath. I received my Bachelor degree from University of British Columbia, advised by Dr. Tim Salcudean. I have also been fortunate to collaborate with many brilliant minds at NVIDIA, JHU, UBC, Meta Reality Labs and Intuitive.
