I am first-year Ph.D. student at UMD Department of Computer Science 💻, co-advised by professors Furong Huang and Jia-Bin Huang.
Prior to UMD, I had my Masters Degree in Department of Aerospace Engineering ✈️ at SNU advised by Prof. H. Jin Kim. I also spent time at Generalizable Robotics and AI Lab (GRAIL) 🤖 at NYU, advised by Prof. Lerrel Pinto. I worked on enhancing the data efficiency of Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Imitation Learning (IL) systems and applied them to various decision-making scenarios, including real-world robots.
Before that, I received Bachelor's degrees in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at SNU ⚙️.
