In March 2026, I joined Sunchon National University as a faculty member. From September 2022 to February 2026, I was a postdoctoral fellow at Korea Institute for Advanced Study (KIAS), under the mentorship of Jonghae Keum and Young-Hoon Kiem. I received my PhD from KAIST in August 2022 under the supervision of Yongnam Lee.
