About

I am currently a machine learning engineer on the content understanding team at Meta working on foundational vision and multimodal models. Previously, I was a machine learning engineer on the Perception team at Lyft Level 5 working on computer vision models for self driving. Before Lyft I was a Masters student at the University of Waterloo. For my research I focused on computer vision and deep learning, specializing in visual perception and scene understanding. The goal of my research is to combine different visual perceptions in order to produce a rich scene understanding, while maintaining a balance between speed, accuracy and size for operational AI.
