About Me

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Stanford University, working with Jiajun Wu. Before that, I did my M.S. at KAIST AI, advised by Jong Chul Ye. I earned my B.S. in Computer Science and Biological Sciences (Double Major) from KAIST in Feb. 2024.

My research focuses on improving and controlling generative models across various modalities. I am interested in enabling them to capture the structure and dynamics of the physical world, and in using them to build agents that operate in real-world environments. Please refer to my CV for details.

I’m greatly interested in any research collaborations. Please feel free to contact me!
