I'm working on building an ultra-high-resolution simulation system that works in parallel across multiple GPUs. It's thrilling, and I'm so excited to be back creating water simulations.

I co-founded and was the technical lead for the NPC AI group, as part of the Simulation team. Our team's role was to use machine learning to improve the reactive simulations of pedestrians, cyclists, and other vehicles in simulated environments for our autonomous vehicles.

I was a member of the Social VR team, working on the task of creating playful, stylized 3D Avatars for users based on photographs and customizations. I designed and built the prototype web renderer for our Avatar editor, which used models from our art department and was connected to a machine-learning pipeline for configuring face shapes based on profile photos. I was able to work in almost every level of the Facebook infrastructure, committing code in at least six different programming languages. I also was briefly in the news for having invented a new unit of time for media applications, the "Flick". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flick_(time)

I am a member of the subcommittee of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences that

investigates and reports on the Scientific and Technical Achievement Academy Awards.
