Hi, I’m Joon. I’m a third year student at the University of Virginia, pursuing a double major in Computer Science and Mathematics. I’m a member of RAISE group at UVA, led by Prof. Ferdinando Fioretto.

My research focuses on algorithmic fairness and differential privacy, particularly how privacy noise impacts decision-making tasks. I’m also interested in reconstruction attacks and their practical implications for data privacy.

I’m applying to Ph.D. programs in Computer Science and Operations Research in the next cycle. Feel free to reach out—I’d appreciate any connections!
