Hi, I’m Zach.

I’m an Electrical & Computer Engineering PhD student at UT Austin working with Prof. Jon Tamir in the Computational Sensing & Imaging Lab.

I’m working on provably efficient, scalable, and robust algorithms for computational imaging and sequence modeling. Generally, I’m curious about AI/ML, signal processing, optimization, probability, statistics, and control.

Check out my notes to see what I’m thinking about and kū to see what I’m seeing!

I’m always open to new opportunities and collaborations within my interests. You can contact me at zstoebner@austin.utexas.edu.
