About

I am a first-year PhD student in Computer Science at New York University, advised by Qi Sun. My research focuses on neural representations for image and texture compression, with an emphasis on efficient GPU implementations and real-time performance.

Before my PhD, I completed my BS in computer science and cognitive science at the University of Richmond, where I worked with Arryn Robbins and Catherine Finegan-Dollak on webcam eye tracking and visual search.
