About

I’ve always been fascinated by how computers and machines perceive the world, how a collection of pixels, point clouds, or radiance fields can evolve into real understanding. That curiosity has guided my career from GIS and computer vision to the frontier of physical AI. Over the past decade, I’ve worked across computer vision, 3D reconstruction, and synthetic data — helping industries turn spatial data into meaningful insight. My early work focused on capturing the real world with precision. Today, my focus has expanded to exploring how we can simulate it with equal fidelity. As the Chief Evangelist at Lightwheel, I explore how world foundation models, synthetic data, and radiance fields are transforming the way machines learn about the physical world. My goal is to help close the Sim2Real gap by connecting the technologies that capture reality with those that simulate and learn from it. Through my platform, Pixel Reconstruct, I share insights, experiments, and interviews that highlight the future of physical intelligence. It's a platform where perception, simulation, and learning converge.

Founder & Content Creator

Aug 2023 – Present · 2 yrs 9 mos

Pixel Reconstruct is where I explore how machines learn to perceive and interact with the physical world. What began as a YouTube channel has grown into a technical media brand and consulting practice focused on 3D reconstruction, radiance fields, world foundation models, and AI forrobotics simulation.
I produce research breakdowns, tutorials, interviews with industry experts, live demonstrations, and I work with teams who need subject-matter expertise in synthetic data, world models, and radiance field pipelines (3DGS). My goal is to make the frontier of physical AI accessible and actionable.
