About

Making software and AI dependable.

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the TAU Lab at Università della Svizzera italiana (USI), led by Prof. Paolo Tonella.

I completed my Ph.D. at KAIST under the supervision of Prof. Shin Yoo. My research bridges software engineering and artificial intelligence, with a focus on testing, reliability, robustness, interpretability, and assurance for learning-enabled systems.
