I am a third-year PhD student at HCI Institute in Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Chris Harrison in the Future Interfaces Group. My research explores the intersection of Human-Computer Interaction, Sensing, Robotics, and Machine Learning. I approach both improving machine perception for physical understanding (; multi-modal sensing, robot learning) and designing such computing in service of people (; input, expressive avatar, dexterous manipulation, wearables). I presented papers at prestigious computer science conferences such as ACM CHI and UIST and received two Best Paper Honorable Mention awards at CHI. Formerly, I graduate from KAIST School of Computing, advised by Geehyuk Lee at KAIST HCIL. I interned at Apple AIML Robotics (with Mario Srouji and Jian Zhang) and Meta Reality Labs (with Eric Whitmire).
