Research Experience
  • Worked as a research intern at Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA); involved in multiple research projects such as Web-Shepherd, Embodied Agents Meet Personalization, etc.
Education
  • Received B.S. in Materials Science & Engineering from Yonsei University in Aug. 2024; currently a first-year M.S. student at Yonsei University's Language and AGI Lab, advised by Jinyoung Yeo.
Background
  • Research interests include reinforcement learning to solve long-horizon tasks, developing intelligent systems that learn through interaction with the environment, and analyzing language models to identify limitations and room for improvement. Aims to build human-like intelligent systems that can autonomously learn, reason, and adapt to diverse environments.
