I am an Assistant Professor in the Dept. of Environment & Forest Resources at Chungnam National University (CNU), Republic of Korea. My research examines how societies can build sustainable relationships between humans and nature by integrating ecosystem services, environmental policy, and non-market valuation. I also study how emerging technologies shape human–nature relations and how responsible, human-centered design can support environmental management.
