I am a Ph.D. student at The University of Texas at Austin, advised by Prof. Atlas Wang at VITA Group. My research interest lies in task-aware embodied AI systems that connect 3D scene understanding and reconstruction with downstream decision-making, with the goal of enabling reliable and safety-aware autonomy in complex real-world environments.

Previously, I was at Visual Information Processing Lab, Seoul National University (SNU) where I completed my master's studies with Prof. Joonseok Lee, studying computer vision. Before that, I received Bachelor's degrees in Statistics and Business Administration at SNU, where I worked with Prof. Taesung Park and Prof. Iksoo Huh on statistical meta-analysis at Bioinformatics and Biostatistics Lab.

My first name is pronounced "Suh-young (서영)" []
