About

I am a Master of Artificial Intelligence student at Monash University. My current research focuses on diffusion-based image generation and watermarking for AI-generated images. Before starting my master's, I worked in data and technology roles at the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia.

My research interests include computer vision, generative models, and image provenance. Outside research, I enjoy astrophotography, especially photographing deep-sky objects.
