About
I am an assistant professor in the School of Transdisciplinary Innovations and the Department of Statistics at Seoul National University.
Before joining SNU, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Statistics and Data Science at Carnegie Mellon University, mentored by Dr. Kathryn Roeder and Dr. Jing Lei. I was also involved in several genetic projects mentored by Dr. Bernie Devlin. I received my Ph.D. in 2022 from the Department of Statistics at the University of Pittsburgh, advised by Dr. Kehui Chen. Before joining a Ph.D. program, I worked as an economic statistician at the Bank of Korea for 2.5 years. I obtained a M.A. in Economics from Seoul National University and a B.S. in Mathematical Science from KAIST.
My research mainly focuses on (1) the development of test of association for modern data, characterized by nonlinear relationships, various forms, incompleteness, or non-iid structures, and (2) its application to variable selection.
