Hi there :wave:,

I currently serve as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Electronics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Gadjah Mada. My research is centered on data mining and software engineering, with a particular emphasis on developing automated solutions to enhance software development processes. I am also deeply committed to leveraging technology for social good, focusing on projects that address environmental sustainability and support underrepresented communities.

I earned my PhD in Software Engineering from Monash University, where my research focused on AI-enabled approaches to identifying and mitigating human values consideration in software development. I also serve as a reviewer for Journal of Systems and Software, Information and Software Technology, and SoftwareX.
