I am a PhD student at Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago, and my advisors are Prof. Raquel Urtasun and Prof. Greg Shakhnarovich. I did my master in Computer Science at USC and bachelor in Computer Science & Engineering and Mathematics at POSTECH.

My main research interests span various problems and theory related to the fields of Machine Learning. I am specifically interested in unsupervised learning, dimensionality reduction, matrix factorization, convex optimization and their applications to computer vision.
