Hello!

My name is Ryu, prounouced like kangaroo. I am a software engineer at Google, working on AI infrastructure (my website and content are not affliated with Google in any way). I have a huge passion and interest for computers and their role in human society.

I was previously a BS/MS student at the University of Washington and worked on NLP-SE (Natural Language Processing and Software Engineering) research at PLSE advised by René Just and mentored by Sam Kaufman.

Before that, I was advised by Hannaneh Hajishirzi and mentored by Ellen Wu at the H2Lab and worked on Natural Language Processing.

I am incredibly grateful to have worked with so many wonderful researchers and am still very interested in working on Machine Learning for Code, Natural Language Processing, and Software Engineering projects.

I transferred to the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington from Tarrant County College in Hurst, Texas back in 2021 to pursue a BS in Computer Science.

Here is my CV.
