I am a Co-founder and Chief Scientist at Familiar Labs Inc., where I lead the development of unified audio-visual AI models for expressive multilingual video generation and dubbing. Concurrently, I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Artificial Intelligence at Yonsei University and a graduate researcher at the Visual Intelligence Lab (ViLab), advised by Prof. Youngjung Uh.
My research focuses on multimodal generative models, particularly audio-video generation, editing, and translation using flow matching and diffusion models. Specifically, I explore how to generate natural, temporally synchronized audiovisual content across languages while improving inference efficiency and visual fidelity.
Before joining Yonsei, I earned my B.S. in IT Engineering and Statistics from Sookmyung Women’s University and worked as an undergraduate research intern at the Computer Vision Lab at Korea University.
