Welcome :) I am a first-year PhD student in Quantitative Marketing at Johnson, Cornell University.

My current research examines the application of machine learning in empirical management research, while exploring its underlying mechanisms.

Prior to joining the doctoral program, I practiced in Seoul for several years with the tech startups where I was involved in projects developing statistical methodologies and applying them to high dimensional data.

I received an MS in Information Systems from KAIST and a BS in Computer Science and Engineering from UNIST.
