What Am I Doing With My Life?
Since June 2010 I've been working in Autodesk Research in the Digital Environment group, and really like it! Before that, I received a Masters in Computer Science from University of Toronto under supervision of Aaron Hertzmann. I completed my Undergrad degree in Computer Science from the University of Michigan in May 2006, where I worked for Lee Markosian. From July 2006 to June 2008 I worked for Thomson Reuters on a search engine for lawyers, westlaw.com. I've done an internship in Adobe Creative Technology Lab in Summer 2009, and in Auryn Animation Studio in Summer 2005.
