Research Interests

From June 2005 to December 2008 I was a researcher and phd candidate under the supervision of Karol Myszkowski in the general areas of image processing, enhanced depiction and tone mapping. I visited the Inria ARTIS group from September 2006-April 2007, where I worked under Joëlle Thollot. I am now working at Google Zurich.
