About Me

I am an incoming Ph.D. student in Department of Computer Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, advised by Prof. Sharon Yixuan Li. Before joining Sharon’s group, I obtained my MS degree in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Seoul under supervision of Prof. Kyungwoo Song and Prof. Jiyoung Jung. I had the privilege of working with Zhi-Qi Cheng, Alexander Hauptmann, and David Mortensen during visiting at Carnegie Mellon University, and internship at NAVER AI Lab allows me to be advised by Dongyoon Han and Sangdoo Yun.

I am broadly interested in machine learning and representation learning. Recently, I have been immersed in realizing reliable AI from the context of large-scale foundation models in the wild. To that end, I have explored the intersection of representation learning, robustness under distribution shift, and efficient transfer learning of foundation models.
