About

I am an undergraduate researcher at the Intelligent & Systems Laboratory (ISL) at DGIST, driven by a deep passion for artificial intelligence and its intersection with human-centered innovation. My academic and research journey has been shaped by a strong curiosity to bridge theory and practice — from understanding the core principles of AI to applying them in real-world systems.
Beyond research, I am honored to serve as the President of Midam, a volunteering club dedicated to social impact, and as a Board Member of the Midam Scholarship Foundation. I am also proud to be an Associate Member of the National Academy of Engineering of Korea Young Engineers Honor Society, engaging with talented peers across the country in advancing science and technology.

At DGIST, I am grateful to have been recognized as a Presidential Fellow and Peer Counselor Scholarship recipient, opportunities that continue to strengthen my sense of purpose and responsibility as both a researcher and a leader.
Every opportunity I’ve had — in the lab, in service, and in leadership — has deepened my conviction to pursue innovation that serves both technology and humanity.
