During my Mozilla Research Fellowship and MS at Rice University, I worked on making virtual reality accessible through web browsers:

Optimizing VR on WebGL — Research on improving parallelism and rendering performance for WebVR applications in Firefox (MS Thesis, Rice University).
Mozilla Research Fellowship — Conducted in-depth research to optimize VR performance in the browser, contributing to Firefox’s WebVR capabilities.
Google Developer Expert — Recognized expertise in Web Technologies, contributing to the broader web platform community.

This work laid the foundation for my continued interest in bringing powerful computing capabilities to resource-constrained environments, whether that’s a browser or an edge device.
