Hello! I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Urban Administration at the University of Seoul. My research focuses on Pedestrian Policy Assessment, Urban Modeling & AI, Quantitative Research, and GIS & Network Analysis.

My core research themes are threefold: First, examining how urban policies and environments impact people's health, safety, and behavior. Second, discovering urban problems and deriving policy solutions by utilizing reliable, real-time urban big data. Third, conducting rigorous urban policy assessments through scientific and systematic analytical methodologies.
