I'm currently a research engineer at Inkbit , a MIT startup focused on industrial 3D printing. I studied computer graphics and received my Ph.D. at University of California, Santa Barbara under the supervision of Professor Ted Kim .

Research Interests

My research interests include physically based animations, geometry processing and shape analysis. I developed some efficient spectral methods for 3D packing and smoke animations.
