Career Profile

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Chungnam National University. I received my Ph.D. and M.S. in the School of Computing at KAIST, and my B.S. in Computer Science from Ajou University. Before joining CNU, I spent six months as a visiting faculty researcher at Google. My research interests lie primarily in enhancing static analysis techniques to detect faults and improve the reliability of real-world software systems, including Android applications and binaries, as well as mission-critical software such as satellite and autonomous driving systems.
