I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. I am fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Atlas Wang in the VITA Group. My research interests are broadly in the areas of deep learning and computer vision.

Previously, I received an M.S. under the supervision of Prof. Terrance Boult in the Vision and Security Technology Lab at the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. During this time, I worked in the areas of biometrics, computer vision, and deep learning and received an outstanding graduate student award.
