About Me

Thanks for visiting my website! ✨ I am a 2nd-year Ph.D. student at UNC Chapel Hill, MURGe-Lab (Advisor: Prof. Mohit Bansal). Previously, I was advised by Prof. Jinkyu Kim at Korea University, Prof. Sung Ju Hwang at KAIST.

Research Interests

I enjoy input-adaptive modeling on real-life scenarios.

• Multimodal (Video) Generation / Understanding: self-correcting and adaptive architecture with RL/post-training
• Physical AI: adaptive action modeling in embodied scenario with perceptual modality (e.g., 3D LiRAR, Gaze, HD Maps).
