Past Experience
Lead Machine Learning Researcher
ResearchDrove development of CNN models to generate realistic 3D hair reconstructions across demographics, boosting accuracy to 96% and enabling deployment on lightweight devices. Built a highly robust extraction algorithm with OpenCV and SAM segmentation, capable of handling poor-quality images and achieving perfect segmentation on 98% of images.
Software Engineer
ResearchEngineered an AR application on Snap Spectacles in collaboration with the Snapchat Prototyping Team, enabling analysis of 92% of the available field of vision. Created a process to transform video into accurate 3D environments by integrating SLAM and point-cloud segmentation models, thereby optimizing output by 44%.
