I am a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), advised by Prof. Min Jun Kim at the Intelligent Robotic System Lab.

My research is centered on robotics, primarily focusing on (but not limited to):

Robot Learning
Robotic Manipulation
State Estimation
Optimization-based Control

Previously, I completed my M.S. in Electrical Engineering at KAIST (2024), and my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering at Korea University (2022). I have also spent time as a guest researcher at the German Aerospace Center (DLR).
