M.S. Student at KAIST School of Computing

I study how AI systems behave across cultures and contexts—and build benchmarks that make their hidden failures easier to see.

About me

Building more accountable AI.

I am an M.S. student in Computer Science at KAIST, where I work in the U&I Lab with Professor Alice Oh. My research focuses on evaluating AI systems—especially multimodal models—in culturally diverse and real-world settings.

I design datasets and benchmarks that surface hidden model failures, measure robustness, and help make AI systems more transparent and reliable.

Outside research, I enjoy turning ideas into products. I am also the founder of Particall, a social platform designed to help people find others to play games with.

When I am away from a screen, you will usually find me playing guitar, reading, or looking for a better cup of coffee.
