Hi! I am a Ph.D. student in the School of Computing at KAIST. I am working with Juho Kim as part of KIXLAB.
My research interests in Human-Computer Interaction lies on HCI x AI, Video interaction and understanding, and Multimedia content creation and consumption. I aim to understand multimedia content by using HCI and AI techniques and build interactive technologies that help users create and consume the content.
