About me

I am a postdoctoral researcher in Mechanical and Civil Engineering at California Institute of Technology. I am currently working in Prof. Aaron D. Ames' Advanced Mechanical Bipedal Experimental Robotics (AMBER) Lab at Caltech. I received my B.S. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Seoul National University, and my M.S. at Seoul National University in Prof. Jaeheung Park's Dynamic Robotic Systems Lab. I received my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at Virginia Tech. I was a member of the Hybrid Dynamic Systems and Robot Locomotion (HDSRL) Lab, advised by Prof. Kaveh Akbari Hamed.
