I’m an incoming AI Research Engineer at Samsung Research. My research background is in embodied agents and large models, which I specialized in as a Research Assistant at the SNU Machine Perception and Reasoning Lab at Seoul National University advised by Prof. Jonghyun Choi. Prior to that, I worked as a mechanical engineer at Samsung Electronics.

I received an M.S. degree in Artificial Intelligence from Yonsei University under the supervision of Prof. Jonghyun Choi and a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the same university.
