About

I am a 1st year M.S. & Ph.D. student at Algorithmic Intelligence Laboratory (ALIN-LAB), advised by Prof. Jinwoo Shin at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). I received my B.S. in Computer Science & Engineering at Korea University in 2025.

My goal is to build intelligent systems that can perceive, understand, and interact with the world in a human-like manner. To this end, my research focuses on Robotics Foundation Models and Vision-Language-Action (VLA) Models. In particular, I am interested in extending VLA models with additional multimodal inputs that enable better cross-modal alignment and more precise robot control.
