BIOGRAPHY

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatics Engineering (CEGE) at Florida Atlantic University. I am also jointly appointed with the Institute for Sensing and Embedded Network Systems Engineering (I-SENSE) as a Faculty Fellow. My primary research interests are in the development of sensor network applications and robust data analytics approaches that can create new innovative service propositions for the next generation of smart and connected urban environment.

I received my bachelor degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Kookmin University in South Korea and master and doctoral degrees from Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics from Columbia University. During my Ph.D., I was a research intern at Philips Research North America. After my Ph.D., I was a Postdoctoral Research Scientist at Columbia University.
