I am a research scientist at Google DeepMind. Before this, I was a research scientist at Waymo. I did my Ph.D. at Johns Hopkins University, where I was advised by Bloomberg Distinguished Professor Alan Yuille.

My research spans across various topics in computer vision. Currently I lead works on multimodal alignment for Gemini / Bard. Here is my CV and Google Scholar.
