BIOGRAPHY

I was an invited Researcher at IHES, Bures-sur-Yvette, France, and  previously, I was Postdoctoral Fellow at MSRI - Berkeley, CA in fall 2009. Prior to that, I was a Visiting Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University, College Station 2010-2012, and a Guest Researcher at Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, Germany June-December 2012, and then an Assistant Professor of mathematics at School of Mathematics, Korea Institute for Advanced Study (KIAS), 2014- 2016. The primary focus of my research lies in the areas of complex algebraic geometry, computational algebraic geometry, tropical geometry, complex analysis, combinatorics, deformation of singularities, (co)amoebas of complex varieties, and mirror symmetry.
