I am currently a Professor in the Department of AI and Software at Gachon University, Seongnam, South Korea (2016 spring -). Before joining here, I worked at Samsung electronics (Suwon, S. Korea) from 2012 to 2016. In there, I participated in healthcare projects in which I developed algorithms to understand health and wellness related conditions of users based on biosignal processing, statistical data analysis for wearable/portable healthcare devices. From 2011 to 2012, I joined the Virtual Human project under Jonathan Gratch  of Institute of Creative Technology, University of Southern California (California, USA) (https://ict.usc.edu/ ). I received BS from Ewha Womans Univ. (Seoul, S. Korea) in 2004. I completed MS and Ph.D. from GIST (Gwangju, S. Korea) under prof. Woontack Woo ( http://uvrlab.org/ ) in 2005 and 2011, respectively. 

My research has been related to mobile healthcare, human-computer interaction, affective computing, context awareness and its application to agents, interfaces and mobile systems.
