Namuroh나무로
Work I love, things I make, and a life still growing.
나무로
Namuroh comes from the Korean namu (나무), meaning tree, and -ro (로), a particle suggesting direction — toward, through, becoming. It’s a name for a way of working: rooted in hard ground, shaped by what it weathered, always reaching.
This site is a window into my life — the research, the teaching, the mentorship, and everything in between. A place to think out loud, share what’s being learned, and keep track of the branches as they grow.
Research
Computational Cognitive Science
Practice
Teaching & Mentorship
Research
Computational cognitive science — studying how people learn and how the brain organizes knowledge. Computational modeling as a lens for understanding our own cognition.
Teaching
Computer science and data science for a Data Science & Machine Learning professional certificate program. Building real understanding, not just exam readiness.
Mentorship
Few things are as fulfilling as helping someone find their footing. Still learning how to do it well. Always growing, always listening. That’s the point.
The Roots
Identity, heritage, and the ground everything grows from. The parts that don’t change when the wind shifts.
The Trunk
Philosophy, values, and the things that stay constant even as everything else branches out.
The Canopy
Active projects and experiments. Code, writing, things in progress — the work that’s happening now.
The Leaves
Notes, reflections, small thoughts. They fall, they accumulate, and they feed what comes next.

Korean-American. The name is a small way of honoring that.
