Biography
I obtained my PhD from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST). I worked at the Visual Computing Center with Professor Wolfgang Heidrich.
My work is at the intersection of computational photography, computer vision, computer graphics, and optimization. My research goal is to design novel imaging methodologies that can be utilized for 3D scene reconstruction and related research topics.
You can find my PhD Thesis here.
I was fortunate to be a research intern at the Computational Imaging Lab at Snap Research in New York City, working with Jian Wang and Shree Nayar.
I am now a Research Scientist at Meta Reality Labs.
