I am currently a PhD student in Computer Science at Trinity College Dublin under the supervision of Prof. Binh-Son Hua. Previously, I was a Research Resident at Qualcomm AI Research. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (APCS) from the University of Science, Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City.

My research interests focus on artificial intelligence, computer vision and computer graphics, with a particular emphasis on 3D understanding and 3D/4D generative modeling. I am interested in building models that can perceive, represent, and generate dynamic 3D worlds.
