TL;DR: Born in Seoul, attended Columbia University, worked at Goldman Sachs, and then joined Google as a software engineer, building tools to create data-driven, dynamic advertisements.

I am a Seoul-born NYC-based technologist, coffeephile, and gallerygoer. I now work at Google as a software engineer.

I completed my degree in computer science at Columbia University. Upon graduation in 2016, I worked in finance engineering at Goldman Sachs, primarily building a tool to run realtime risk analysis on firmwide financial products against various hypothetical market scenarios.

I joined Google in February 2018 and since then have been working as part of the dynamic ads team, enabling advertisers to create programmatically generated, personally tailored advertisements.

In the past, I worked on campus as the webmaster of Columbia Center on Organizational Innovation and held summer internships at InterSystems Corporation as a software developer and at BNP Paribas and Royal Bank of Scotland as a research analyst.

When away from the keyboard, I like to go to art museums and classical concerts. Still a dilettante, I have worked as a docent at a contemporary art gallery in Seoul, providing guided tours of international contemporary art exhibitions.
