About Me

I am an M.S. student at KAIST, currently in the Computational Intelligence Laboratory (Prof. Changick Kim). I earned a B.S. in Civil Engineering from Yonsei University, Seoul, and was a student intern at Seoul National University, working in both the Vehicle Intelligence Laboratory (Prof. Seungwoo Seo) and the Autonomous Robot Intelligence Laboratory (Prof. Seongwoo Kim). I worked as an AI Engineer at Stellarvision, a satellite imagery startup. Also, I am founder of XYZ Innovation, a company focused on applying 3D Vision and Drone technologies to real-world challenges. These combined experiences have shaped my research interests.
