Supporting/Other Information

I worked at Nokia Research, Palo Alto as a research intern in 2007 and early 2008 while studying my Ph.D. at Rutgers Universtiy. After finishing my Ph.D., I joined Nokia Research Center again as a full time member on October 2008. Detail CV can be found here.

Before joining Nokia Research, I spent 3 years with WINLAB (www.winlab.rutgers.edu) as a research assitant. WINLAB was chosen one of top 10 coolest university networking labs in US. Further story can be found at http://www.networkworld.com/news/2008/121508-university-networking-labs.html. WINLAB will face the 20th anniversity this December 2009.


Education & Experience
In US, I finished my PhD in Electrical & Computer Engineering (ECE) at Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ in 2008. While studying there, I spent a few months working for Nokia Research as a research intern (May 2007 ~ Jan. 2008). In Korea, I spent 2.5 years working for TURBOTEK Co., Ltd. where I joined developing three commercial CDMA 1x handsets. The experiences there include phone device driver development, RF calibration, RF test tool development, etc. Prior to joining TURBOTEK, I spent 6 years to complete my bachelor and master degrees at KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology), South Korea by early 2001.
