About Me

I am a third-year M.S./Ph.D. student majoring in Computer Science and Engineering at Seoul National University, advised by Professor U Kang. I received my B.S. in Computer Science from KAIST.

My research engages deeply with data mining and machine learning, specializing in the study of graph neural networks and model compression.
