I am currently a fourth-year PhD candidate, advised by Professor Justin Yim. Previously, I received M.S. and B.S. (with Great Honor) in Mechanical Engineering from Korea University in 2022 and 2020, respectively.

My research focuses on constraint-aware motion design for multi-limb robotic systems. I study how to design coordinated motions for multi-limb robots under physical constraints imposed by robot morphology and dynamics, operating environments, and even human users. My broader goal is to establish motion design principles that enable multi-limb robots to operate effectively in underexplored but impactful applications.

My doctoral work has explored constraint-aware motion design across environment-constrained and human-centered settings, including grasp-based locomotion in microgravity and wearable multi-limb systems for physical assistance. Beyond motion design, I have also developed robotic platforms, including a wearable multi-limb robot and a modular interactive head robot.
