I am currently a Ph.D candidate of computer science at the University of Toronto advised under Professor Karan Singh in the Dynamic Graphics Project lab. I'm interested in researching direct manipulation and in-situ interactions for creation and design exploration using interactive graphics applications.

I have also been a course instructor at the University of Toronto as I enjoy teaching and working with students. I care about crafting story-driven lectures accompanied by dynamic, interactive visualizations to convey complex ideas to students. In the future I hope to continue teaching in academia.

I completed my B.S. in Computer Science and M.S. in Computer Science (Computer Graphics) at the Georgia Institute of Technology where I worked with Professor Greg Turk on 3D fabrication and Professor Jarek Rossignac on truss-lattice tetrahedral structures.

I enjoy serving my church, buying specialty coffee, and training in Olympic Weightlifting (sn: 90kg, c&j: 111kg).
