About

I am a 3rd year Ph.D. student at KAIST, advised by Prof. Kimin Lee and Jinwoo Shin. My research goal is to build a robot that naturally interacts with humans, and ultimately, continually learns from these interactions. To this end, I am currently focusing on enabling robots to respond to human feedback and instructions in real time, whether spoken language, gestures, or physical corrections, and to refine their behavior on the fly. Moreover, I am broadly interested in human-in-the-loop robot learning, human-robot interaction, and reinforcement learning. Previously, I worked as research intern at Microsoft Research and worked on LLM agents for computer use and coding.
