I am a doctoral student in Public Administration at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. I earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees from Yonsei University in Seoul, South Korea, where I developed an academic foundation in organizational behavior and human resource management.

My research focuses on AI governance, digital governance, and public-sector accountability. I examine how artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies reshape administrative decision-making, accountability relationships, and institutional arrangements in public organizations. A central question guiding my work is how governments can leverage technological innovation to improve administrative effectiveness while upholding democratic values such as transparency, fairness, responsiveness, and public accountability.

I also explore the organizational and institutional conditions that shape the adoption and implementation of emerging technologies, including leadership, formal rules, administrative capacity, and public employees' perceptions of technological change. More broadly, I am interested in how technological innovation transforms both public organizations and citizen-state interactions, and how governance arrangements can promote responsible, effective, and equitable uses of emerging technologies.
