Hello,
I'm a PhD candidate at Fraunhofer SCAI and the University of Bonn, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Vahid Babaei. Previously, I was a PhD candidate at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, also supervised by Vahid. My current research interest explores how domain expertise can be integrated into machine learning systems to improve performance in data-scarce domains like drug discovery and materials science.

I earned my M.S. in Robotics from KAIST, supervised by Prof. Seung-Hyun Kong, and my B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from Bandung Institute of Technology.

Misc

I spend most of my free time traveling, gaming, or brewing tea. Bangkok and Taipei are my favorite cities to visit, and I’m a fan of Stellaris (with over 3,700 hours logged). I’m also a particular fan of roasted green tea and jasmine.
