Short Bio

I am currently a software engineer at Facebook Reality Labs. Before joining Facebook, I was a principal engineer at LG Silicon Valley Lab, a principal engineer at Baidu USA, a principal architect of VR/AR at Huawei Technologies, a senior software engineer at Google in YouTube VR team, a staff research engineer at Samsung Research America - Silicon Valley (SRA-SV), a senior system software engineer at NVIDIA, and a postdoctoral researcher at Department of Computer Science, University of Texas at Dallas. I got my Ph.D degree from School of Computing, National University of Singapore, and my M.Eng. and B.Eng. degrees from School of Computer Science and Technology, Shandong University. More details of my background can be found on my LinkedIn profile.

My Erdös Number is 4. Here is my Mathematics Genealogy.
