I am a graduate student in the department of Computer Science at Stanford University, where I am advised by Pat Hanrahan. My undergrad was spent at Caltech, where I studied under Mathieu Desbrun in the Applied Geometry Lab. Go Beavers! My research interests include computer graphics, discrete differential geometry, and advanced sampling methods.

Teaching

During the 2013-14 summer quarter I taught CS 148: Introduction to Computer Graphics and Imaging.

I also act as the department course assistant mentor, and as a teaching consultant for the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL). For more information about teaching in the CS department, see the SUTACS website, or feel free to contact me directly.
