I work on teaching machines a high-level creative understanding of the dynamic real world, which I believe requires learning from video without manual supervision. I am also interested in language, machine learning, computational photography, and interaction as they relate to this.

This summer, I am working with Chen Sun, Jiajun Wu, and Cordelia Schmid at Google Research. Then, I will start a PhD at Berkeley AI Research, advised by Alexei Efros.

I graduated from Columbia University with a BS in computer science, advised by Carl Vondrick.
