I am a Ph.D. candidate in Scalable Graphics, Vision, and Robotics (SGVR) Lab at KAIST advised by Prof. Sung-Eui Yoon. I received my M.S. degree in Computer Science from KAIST and received my B.S. degree in Computer Science from KAIST in 2021 with minor in Electrical Engineering. I spent most of my childhood growing up in the United States, having graduated from Northview High School in Johns Creek, GA. I am also a recipient of the Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship 2023.
My research focuses on adversarial robustness, AI safety, and 3D computer vision. I develop robust AI systems that maintain performance under diverse real-world threats, with recent work on protecting intellectual property of neural radiance fields and building mixture-of-experts architectures for multi-threat defense. I also collaborate extensively on 3D vision problems and privacy-preserving machine learning. More recently, I am interested in building robust and safe Vision-Language-Action (VLA) systems that can operate reliably in the real world.
I am actively seeking for industrial internship positions. Please feel free to contact me for any potential opportunities!
