I work on computer vision and machine learning research specifically in generative AI and self-supervised learning. I am a Research Scientist in the GenAI group at Meta where I lead the research efforts on video generation models. I was the tech lead for Meta’s Movie Gen project for foundation models in video generation, video editing, video personalization, and audio generation.

Previously, I was part of the FAIR team at Meta where I worked on self-supervised learning in computer vision and multimodal learning.

For my work in self-supervised learning, I was featured in the MIT Tech Review’s 35 innovators under 35 list (compiled globally across technological disciplines). You can hear me on Lex Fridman’s podcast for an overview of my work.

I got my PhD at Carnegie Mellon University. I received CMU’s Recent Alumni Achievement Award in 2024 for my research contributions to computer vision and machine learning.
