Currently, he works at the "Air Quality and Materials Application Lab" under the advisory of Distinguished Prof. Ki-Hyun Kim. He graduated with Ph.D. from the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Hanyang University, Seoul, the Republic of Korea, under the supervision of Distinguished Prof. Ki-Hyun Kim. His Ph.D. thesis was titled "Greener synthesis and modification of metal-organic frameworks for adsorptive removal of volatile organic compounds." Hanyang University conferred him the "Best Thesis Award" based on his research and academics. His research interest includes synthesizing and shaping advanced materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and metal oxides (MOs) for air purification by removing or degrading toxic gases such as Benzene, Toluene, Xylene, Formaldehyde, etc. Besides his research, he is passionate about pollution, public health, and climate change. Hence, he is also involved in environmental activism by spreading awareness. He expresses his view in opinion articles (Guest Columnist at The Korea Times), mainly focusing on environmental, climate, and public health issues.
