Sharon Lee

I am Sharon, a CS PhD student and Knight-Hennessy scholar at Stanford University advised by Ron Fedkiw and Chris Manning. I earned my Master’s from Stanford, where I worked with Jiajun Wu and Fei-Fei Li at the Stanford Vision and Learning Lab, and my Bachelor’s in EECS with Honors from UC Berkeley.

My research interest lies in vision foundation models and graphics. In particular, I work on controllable 2D and 3D generation.

Recently, I worked on BEHAVIOR and co-led NOIR, a brain-robot interface for long-horizon tasks.
