She obtained her MSc degree from the Graduate School of EEWS (Energy, Environment, Water, and Sustainability) at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) in 2018, under the supervision of Professor Ali Coskun (MSc thesis: Design and Synthesis of Conjugated Microporous Polymers for Environmental Applications).

She then pursued her Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering at KAIST, completing it in 2022 under the guidance of Professor Il-Doo Kim (PhD dissertation: Design and Synthesis of Porous Organic Frameworks for Energy Storage Applications).

Following her graduate studies, she held professional appointments at KAIST from 2022 to 2023, focusing on the design and development of functional nanomaterials for energy and environmental applications.

In 2023, she joined the laboratory of Prof.

Jeffrey Lopez at Northwestern University as a postdoctoral researcher, where she worked on developing sustainable next-generation energy storage systems, with a focus on solid-state electrolytes and battery recycling, until 2024. She joined to the Department of Chemical Engineering in Ajou University as an assistant professor and established her new lab in September 2024.
