Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoonho Kim is a research-focused software engineer and PhD candidate at the University of Toronto with a decade of experience in graphics, HCI, and education. At the Dynamic Graphics Project he builds sketch-based interfaces to streamline design and animation workflows, blending practical system work with user-centered research. He has taught and coordinated core CS courses extensively, demonstrating a strong commitment to pedagogy alongside research. Past industry and academic internships—Weta Digital (facial modeling), Google, and work with Greg Turk and Jarek Rossignac—give him a rare mix of production-grade engineering and geometric/graphics research. He’s open to faculty or postdoc roles in HCI/Graphics/ML and is considering returning to work in South Korea after graduation. A lesser-known thread through his career is consistent course leadership and curriculum development, reflecting deep interest in how people learn computing as well as how they create with it.
