I am currently at Microsoft working in the Many-core Incubation Group
Research
My interests include:
-
real-time generation of shadows for walkthrus in large, complex models
- Scientific computing and
visualization
-
GPGPU
-
Modelling and rendering of clouds, trees,
landscapes, rivers, and other natural phenomena

Personal
I love computer graphics, classical music, and Italy
(I spent two years there as a missionary for the Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints ). I enjoy waterskiing, hiking, camping, and volleyball. I also dabble
some in politics and philosophy.
