Hey! I work in HCI and computational social science—finding meaningful patterns in data, tackling challenging social problems, and studying how humans and machines interact in groups.
I am a Ph.D. student at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, supervised by Professor Xiaojuan Ma. I earned my B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science at KAIST under Professor Meeyoung (Mia) Cha at the IBS Data Science Group.
Research interests: Finding meaningful patterns in data, solving challenging social problems (e.g., pandemics), understanding and optimizing human–machine group dynamics.
