PhD Student

WHERE I'M FROM

Grew up in the South Bay.

BEFORE VS

I graduated from EECS at Berkeley. Go Bears!

WHY I’M HERE

I absolutely love Berkeley and can't wait to be back for round two. I believe there's no better place for me than Berkeley when it comes to developing myself as a budding researcher.

MY RESEARCH

My interest lies at the intersection of Visual Neuroscience and Computer Vision. The Vision Science program particularly excites me because I want to study the relationship between Computer Vision and Biological Vision in tandem.

MY GOALS

I'm not entirely sure about what I want to do after Berkeley, but I hope it'll be in the realm of being a research scientist, whether in academia or industry.

MY HOBBIES

I love TV and movies. My favorite show of all time is "Avatar: The Last Airbender." I also like to stay active. During undergrad, I was a member of the Ultimate Frisbee and Dragon Boat teams. Recently, I've taken an interest in running, basketball, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
