Hi, I’m Seunggeun 👋

I’m a third-year Ph.D. student in Electrical & Computer Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin, advised by Prof. Adam Klivans.
My research focuses on generative AI (especially diffusion models) for real-world engineering problems, including work in protein design.

Previously, I received my B.S. in ECE from Seoul National University with highest honors in 2023. As an undergraduate, I worked on ASIC design as a research intern with Prof. Jaeha Kim.

Outside the lab: I enjoy reading and learning new things — and I also love singing and working out!
