About Me

I am an undergraduate researcher at Simon Fraser University. My research lies at the intersection of human–AI interaction, extended reality, and accessibility. I study how AI and XR systems can support attention and other cognitive processes while preserving human agency and judgment. Much of my current work focuses on cognitive accessibility for people with ADHD.

At SFU, I work with Lawrence Kim, Wolfgang Stuerzlinger, and Parmit Chilana. I am currently visiting KAIST as an exchange student and research intern at KIXLAB with Juho Kim.

Additionally, I have had various non-research experience, including teaching, working with children/students with disabilities, SWE practicum at Amazon Web Services and technical internship at a local animation studio.
