Collaborating Researcher @ AI2 (Mosaic Team), Seattle.
Undergraduate @ SNU (Electrical & Computer Engineering). Seoul.
Previously, ML Engineer @ Hyperconnect (acquired by Match Group for $1.7B). Seoul.

I am interested in enhancing people’s productivity using AI. These days, I am specifically interested in (1) effectively teach machine using signals from real-world (multimodality; beyond just text), (2) explore to better interact with machine through conversational interfaces.

Misc: I like workouts in the gym and singing :)
