Full-Time Researcher · Kookmin University · Seoul, South Korea

I am a full-time researcher at the Software Convergence Research Center (SCRC), Kookmin University, advised by Professor Park Soo-hyun. My research focuses on edge AI and lightweight language model deployment for resource-constrained communication environments, including underwater and polar network systems.

My background spans low-level systems software, edge device development, and AI infrastructure engineering. I approach research problems with a systems perspective: implementation constraints, performance trade-offs, and practical deployability on resource-limited hardware.
