About Me
I am a senior studying Automotive Engineering at Kookmin University with a minor in Artificial Intelligence. My research interests lie in reinforcement learning, end-to-end autonomous driving, and motion prediction & planning.
I build real systems — from RL-based vehicle controllers to multi-agent AI trading platforms — always bridging the gap between research and deployment.
