I am a mathematician working in the Discrete Mathematics Group (DIMAG) headed by Sang-il Oum at the Institute for Basic Science in Daejeon, South Korea. My primary research focus is computational Ramsey theory, and more broadly I am interested in combinatorics, algebra, and optimization.
From 2023-2026, I was a SEW Visiting Assistant Professor (postdoc) at the University of California, San Diego, and my advisor was Samuel R. Buss.
From 2018-2023, I was a graduate student at UC Davis, and my advisor was Jesús A. De Loera .
