I am a Ph.D. student at Seoul National University M.IN.D Lab, supervised by Prof. Taesup Moon.

My research focuses on safe and trustworthy AI, with an emphasis on algorithmic fairness, bias, and privacy risks. My interests also extend to AI governance and accountability, aiming to bridge technical research with broader societal and regulatory perspectives.
