I am on the 2026–2027 academic job market. My CV is available here.
Upcoming talk at the 2026 INFORMS Annual Meeting, San Francisco
"Designing First-Order Methods with Provable Guarantees via a Data-Driven Approach"
Session: Data-Driven Optimization and Decision Calibration
Nov 1, 11:00AM–12:15PM, South 206
My research interest lies in mathematical optimization and theoretical aspects of machine learning. My recent work focuses on data-driven analysis and design of first-order methods, providing performance guarantees for optimization algorithms via distributionally robust optimization and exact verification. I am also working on accelerating general-purpose first-order solvers.
I obtained Ph.D. from the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Seoul National University (SNU), where I studied classical fixed-point iterations from both theoretical and practical perspectives. My advisor was Prof. Ernest K. Ryu.
