Bio Sketch

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Department of Computer Science at University of Southern California, where I am advised by Prof. Ramesh Govindan in the Networked Systems Lab (NSL). I have successfully defended my dissertation and expect to receive my Ph.D. degree in May 2026. My research interests include computer networking, mobile computing, telemetry systemns, cloud computing, autonomous & connected vehicles, AR/VR systems.

Before joining USC, I received my B.S. and M.S. degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from Ewha Womans University.
