About me

I am a Ph.D. student with the Max Planck ETH Center for Learning Systems (CLS), supervised by Justus Thies (MPI), Michael Black (MPI) and Otmar Hilliges (ETH). My interests lie at the intersection of Computer Graphics and Computer Vision. I am interested in creation photorealistic human avatars. Currently, I am focused on realistic hair reconstruction and rendering.

I obtained my Master's degree in Data Science from joint program between Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology and Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. During my Master studies, I also worked as a Research Engineer at Samsung AI Center.
