Presenter

My research is in geometric deep learning, geometry optimization, and physics-based simulation of all kinds of materials (solids, fluids, waves, cloth, hair, friction / contact, deformable bodies, plasticity, visco-elasto-plasticity, and fracture / damage). I was a Research Engineer at Adobe Seattle (2024-2025). I did postdoc (2020-2023) with Prof. Albert Chern at UC San Diego Computer Science and Engineering, and received my PhD (2014-2020) in Computational Applied Mathematics from UCLA, advised by Prof. Joseph Teran.
