I am a first year ELLIS PhD student at University College London (UCL), sponsored by Adobe Research. I am fortunate to be advised by Prof Niloy Mitra (UCL) and Duygu Ceylan (Adobe). My current research focuses on multimodal learning, combining MLLMs with computer graphics and vision for reasoning in generative and procedural modeling tasks.

I’m currently a research intern at Adobe working with Xuelin Chen, Paul Gurrero, Chun-Hao Huang, and Duygu Ceylan.
