Physical Activity Interventions
Developing scalable, personalized PA intervention models, including conversational agents powered by AI and LLMs, to support behavior change in diverse populations.
Research begins
with measurement.
The central mission of my research is to advance and apply psychometric methodology to solve critical measurement challenges in health research. A complementary mission is to develop computational psychometrics and physical-activity intervention models that leverage artificial intelligence, including large language models (LLMs), to improve measurement quality and enable scalable, personalized behavior change support.
I am a Research Assistant Professor at Chungnam National University (CNU), South Korea. I received my Ph.D. in Kinesiology from Michigan State University, where I specialized in the Psychosocial Aspects of Sport and Physical Activity under the guidance of Dr. Nicholas D. Myers. I also hold a Sports Analytics Graduate Certificate from MSU.
I earned a Master of Sport Science and dual Bachelor's degrees in Mathematics Education and Sport Science from Chungnam National University in South Korea.
