I’m a senior machine learning developer at SAP. I work on the development of intelligent agents on SAP’s products, especially on SAP HANA Cloud.

Besides, I’m a Ph.D. student at SoC at KAIST under the supervision of Prof. Sungjin Ahn. My research interests are in the diverse inductive biases to extend the generality of AI.

In the past, I worked in Samsung Electronics and graduated from KAIST.
