About

I am a 3rd year Ph.D. student at KAIST, advised by Prof. Kimin Lee, and currently a visiting scholar at New York University collaborating with Prof. Mengye Ren. My research goal is to build robots that can interact with humans over long horizons reliably and safely. To this end, I work on robot learning and human-robot interaction, focusing on model architectures, scalable data sources, and agentic frameworks for natural interaction with humans.
