Beyond Academics
Outside of my research and engineering work, I dedicate my free time to personal pursuits that enrich my perspective and keep me creative. From mastering non-native languages to immersing myself in gaming, animation, and sports, these interests shape how I think, stay inspired, and unwind outside of academics.
My Hobbies & Interests
Foreign Languages & Cultural Exploration
I have a deep passion for learning foreign languages, particularly English and 日本語. Studying new languages opens up fresh ways of thinking, connects me with diverse global communities, and allows me to explore foreign media, literature, and cultures from a unique perspective.
Gaming & Animation
I am an avid fan of video games, including offline single-player titles and online multiplayer games, as well as animation. My early fascination with rendered virtual worlds and animated storytelling originally ignited my curiosity and lifelong passion for Computer Graphics and Computer Vision.
Sports & Football
While seemingly unrelated to computer science, sports play a crucial role in keeping me balanced and energized. I am a huge football fan, enjoying both playing on the pitch and watching live matches. It keeps me active, disciplined, and recharged outside of technical work.
