Bio:
Until very recently, I wasa Postdoctoral Researcher in the Computer Graphics group at Columbia University, with Professor Ravi Ramamoorthi. Before joining the lab here at Columbia, I was a postdoc in the Graphics group of the University of California, San Diego, where I also did my Ph.D. under Professor Henrik Wann Jensen.
