About

I am a first year PhD student at Columbia University in the Columbia Imaging and Vision Lab (CAVE) with Shree Nayar. My research is in computational imaging, with a focus on understanding the material properties of our lived environment. I'm interested in its relevance to robotics and remote sensing.

Prior to starting at Columbia, I completed my BS and MEng at MIT working with Daniela Rus on robot vision. I also worked on depth estimation at NODAR for a few years, and spent a summer at NASA.
