Robot Hacking!

I’m interested in robotics as a way to enable new better user interfaces to technology. I envision a world in which we interact with technology the same way we interact with other humans. I loathe sitting at a computer (or typing on my blackberry) to accomplish tasks as simple as writing an email.

Life of a Dancing Engineer

we dance for laughter, we dance for tears,
we dance for madness, we dance for fears,
we dance for hopes, we dance for screams,
we are the dancers, we create the dreams.

About Me

Layla Mah studied Computer Science and Graphics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. She also studied Mandarin at East China Normal University. Prior to joining the developer relations team at AMD, she developed and optimized game and graphics engines for PC and Console (PS3, XBOX, Xbox 360, and Wii). She has previously worked at Vicarious Visions, Blue Fang Games, and WB Games: Turbine. In her role at AMD, she interfaces with game developers and provides them with the support needed to maximize their engine’s graphics performance and quality on modern DX11 class hardware, and beyond. She also interfaces with hardware architects and leads an internal team responsible for graphics R&D. When not busy working with bleeding edge graphics and game developers, Layla can most often be found in the dance studio, figure skating, or driving around on the race track. Her favorite video games are Final Fantasy VI, Chrono Trigger, and Mario Bros Wii.
