Seeking AI Research Internships 2D/3D, continual learning, vision-language, and diffusion systems.

I am a Combined MS/PhD student at UNIST AIGS, advised by Prof. Seungryul Baek. My work focuses on continual learning, open-world detection, and vision-language systems.

Previously, I interned at NAVER AI Lab advised by Dongyoon Han, where I studied backbone architectures and analyzed internal representations of large-scale models. I also serve as an NVIDIA AI Ambassador, with a strong interest in applied AI for everyday problems.
