Hi, I'm Hwan Heo (허환), an AI Research Engineer working across 3D AI and graphics. By day, I build 3D worlds with AI; by night, I'm usually wandering through music, guitar, or random STEM rabbit holes. This site is where I collect the work, notes, and experiments behind that mix.

At NC AI, I lead research and engineering for the VARCO 3D team, developing production 3D AI systems across large-scale generative model training, inference optimization, and graphics algorithms. I hold both a B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science from Korea University, where I was advised by Professor Hyunwoo J. Kim. Previously, I was a Research Intern at NAVER AI Lab, mentored by Dr. Jin-Hwa Kim.
