I am an incoming Ph.D. student in the Visual Computing and Artificial Intelligence Department at Max Planck Institute for Informatics with my supervisor Dr. Vladislav Golyanik and Prof. Christian Theobalt. My research focus lies at the intersection of Computer Vision and Deep Learning. In particular, I am interested in Egocentric 3D Human Pose Estimation, 3D Object Reconstruction, and Synthetic-to-Real Domain Adaptation.

Previously, I obtained my MS and BS at Keio University in Japan, with Prof. Masaki Takahashi. During my MS, I had a great opportunity to work with Prof. Peter Wonka at KAUST. Also, I went to  Haas School of Business, University of California, Berkeley to study Business Administration and Entrepreneurship.
