I am passionate about solving real problems using imaging science. From fashion to photography, from silicon chips to cinematic visual effects, I dig in deep to understand the people and the industry, and find breakthrough solutions. I lead adventures into the unknown and return with valuable discoveries.Key skillsResearch leader: Strategic planner, proposal driver, team leader, daily advisor and constant collaborator. To solve important problems I make key connections between people and ideas, across teams, organisations and countries.Technical expert: Broad experience in optics, image processing and computer vision, with deep expertise in image alignment and depth estimation. Rapidly explores new problems with self-study, analysis, simulations and experiments.Communicator: Listens carefully and identifies the heart of any discussion. Asks questions that provoke progress. Delivers exciting presentations and exacting reports.Seeker: Learns the context to understand how technology will be used. Studies the domain, interviews the experts to guide research directions and ensures the results will be valued.Creator: Contributes to a better future through inventions and discoveries. Designs and implements algorithms from high-level pipelines to low-level pixel loops. Inventor on 43 patents, and co-author on 25 academic talks and papers with 581 citations.Delivery: Writes and presents proposals that land new business. Successful delivery of discoveries and technology for 24 commercial project contracts with outstanding customer satisfaction.Technical specialties: Research leadership, material appearance, image alignment, Fourier optics, adaptive optics, computational imaging, image processing, computer vision, depth estimation, microscopy, phase imaging, high-aperture diffraction optics.
