About 

I am a PH.D. candidate in the Department of Applied Artificial Intelligence at Sungkyunkwan University, advised by Professor Eunil Park, a member of the Data eXperience Lab. 

My research interests lie at the intersection of social computing, human-computer interaction, and AI systems designed to support vulnerable populations.
My work combines deep learning approaches with social welfare perspectives to create more accessible, inclusive technologies, while also focusing on data analysis of vulnerable populations to better understand their unique needs in our increasingly AI-driven society.
