About
Hi! I’m currently a visiting researcher in the Language Technologies Institute at CMU, working with Maarten Sap. I recently completed an MS in School of Computing at KAIST, where I was advised by Alice Oh.
My research interests lie in human-centered NLP and computational social science. During my master’s studies, I have focused on key yet under-explored facets of socio-cultural intelligence in language models, including cultural sensitivity, theory of mind, and question-asking abilities.
