Bio
SIGGRAPH 2023
As a lifelong gamer, games are what brought me to the field of computer graphics. I pursue my passion for gaming at NVIDIA, where I work as a research scientist. I’ve worked on ray tracing hardware and software, augmented and virtual reality, and most recently have shifted my focus to esports, looking for ways to enable players to achieve the highest levels of performance and skill in gaming. I’m excited by the potential games, and particularly multiplayer games, have to connect people to virtual worlds, and by extension to other people across the world forming new and unique human connections.
