I am a PhD candidate at CGIM lab, University of Houston. I received my B.S. and M.S. degrees in Computer Science from Zhejiang University in 2005 and 2007, respectively. I had the summer internship at NVidia in 2010 and 2011. I received PhD Student of the Year Award from the Department of Computer Science at the University of Houston in 2009.
My current research interests include: Computer Graphics and Computer Animation. Also, I like cool stuff with graphics hardware, and sometimes I post my thoughts here.
