About me

IMG_20140503_095229493

I am an assistant Professor in the department of computer science at Lafayette College. I received my PhD from the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell University. I was advised by Prof. Tsuhan Chen as member of the Advanced Multimedia Processing Lab. Prior to arriving at Cornell I received my Bachelors in Electrical and Computer Engineering from The Cooper Union.

My research in the field of computer vision has been mostly driven by the way humans understand and interact with images. This human centered view has led me to work on new and exciting projects, which utilize tools from different fields (such as computer vision, signal processing, natural language processing, machine learning, etc.) and apply them in new ways.

In my spare time I enjoy hanging out with my family, playing guitar, hiking, and going to the movies.
