I'm a postdoctoral fellow in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University working with Prof. Jessica Hodgins in the Graphics Lab. I completed my Ph.D. in the Computer Science Department at the University of California at Berkeley, where I worked in Prof. James O'Brien's Berkeley Computer Animation & Modeling (B-CAM) group which is part of the larger UC Berkeley Graphics Group. My main research interests are in computer graphics and animation. In particular, I am interested in developing numerical methods and physically based simulation techniques for use in computer animation. I am also interested in the rendering and display of simulation data, as well as in the development of techniques and intuitive tools for controlling and interacting with physically based simulation systems. Finally, I am interested in data-driven techniques for animation of human motion and passive systems.
