I am an Assistant Professor at Dongduk Women's University and the Director of FINDS Lab, working across Financial Data Science, Business Analytics, and Data-Driven Decision Making. My research brings together modern data science and financial engineering to tackle practical questions in finance and broader business domains.
In particular, I focus on three directions:
AI-driven solutions for quantitative finance — portfolio optimization, algorithmic trading, and financial time-series forecasting.
Advanced analytics across business domains, employing a comprehensive suite of analytical approaches—from time-series models to graph-based analytics and beyond—to surface actionable insights.
Intelligent decision support systems that pair optimization techniques with user-friendly interfaces for complex business problems.
The goal is simple: bridge academic rigor and real-world application, and share ideas that are both sound and genuinely useful.
