I am an M.S. student in Computer Science at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), advised by Prof. Minje Kim. My research interests include but are not limited to audio understanding, multimodal learning, efficient deep learning.
Previously, I worked at Samsung Electronics as an AI researcher at Samsung Research and in the Mobile eXperience (MX) Business. I developed Audio Eraser for the Galaxy S25 series and contributed to a diagnosis system for Samsung home appliances.
I earned my B.S. in Industrial Engineering and Artificial Intelligence from Seoul National University.
