Junyong Park
Pittsburgh, PA, USA · Ph.D., KAIST · jyp0802@hotmail.com
I recently completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science at KAIST.
My work focuses on building machine learning models that extract meaningful structure from wearable sensor data for practical use.

I am currently seeking opportunities in applied machine learning, wearable sensing, and health-related AI.
