About me

I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Cyber Defense, Sejong University. I received my Ph.D. in Mathematical Sciences (specializing in Cryptography) from Seoul National University under the supervision of Prof. Jung Hee Cheon. Before joining Sejong University, I was an AI Fellow (AI Assistant Professor) at the Center for AI and Natural Science at Korea Institute of Advanced Study (KIAS).

My major research topics are fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) and its applications to private-preserving machine learning (PPML) and private AI.
