About Me

I am a final year Ph.D. Candidate at KAIST School of Computing, advised by Prof. Sung-Ju Lee. I have also closely collaborated with Prof. Yunxin Liu. I received my B.S. degree in Computer Science from KAIST in 2018.

I research on the intersection of Privacy-Preserving ML - Federated Learning (FL) and on-device AI, uncovering novel applied machine learning technologies on smartphones and wearables, especially for healthcare. My research also focuses on promoting efficient AI deployment in practice via system-based algorithmic approaches.

I am in the industrial job market! Here is my resume. Please feel free to contact me for any potential opportunities.
