About

My research sits at the intersection of computer graphics, computer vision, and scientific computing, with a particular emphasis on physics-based light transport simulation, differentiable & inverse rendering, and Monte Carlo methods for partial differential equations. More broadly, I am interested in developing mathematically grounded algorithms for modeling complex physical phenomena and for enabling the analysis, reconstruction, and design of geometry, materials, and illumination from diverse sensor data and physical measurements.
