About Me

I am a senior research scientist at NVIDIA. I obtained my PhD at the University of Toronto, advised by Prof. Sanja Fidler. Before that, I earned my Msc and Bsc degrees from the same university. My research interests include content creation with generative models and its applications in computer vision.
