About Me

I am a research scientist at Meta Superintelligence Labs (MSL), working on video generative models. Before moving to MSL, I was a research scientist at Meta Reality Labs working on human body modelling, where I drove the design and on-device shipment of the latest generation of human motion estimation model for Meta VR / AR devices.

Before joining Meta, I got my PhD from the University of Edinburgh, under the supervison of Dr Elliot J. Crowley. My PhD research was in computer vision, with a focus on developing effective neural networks for 2D and 3D visual perception and designing efficient training algorithms for visual recognition models. I hold an MSc in computer science from Boston University and BEng in computer science from the University of Science and Technology of China.
