I am a transport and logistics researcher with a background in maritime operations, simulation modelling, and quantum technologies. My doctoral research at the University of Strathclyde focused on the end-of-life phase of ships, where I developed a risk-based cost-benefit optimisation framework using simulation to support safer and more sustainable ship recycling practices. This work received recognition from the Indonesian Ambassador to the UK and the International Maritime Organization, earning me the MVP Award in 2021 for my contribution to advancing ship recycling reform in Indonesia.

Following my PhD, I worked for two years in a joint academic-industry role at the University of Kent and the Port of Dover through an Innovate UK Knowledge Transfer Partnership. My role centred on traffic simulation and modelling to improve port operations. I have since expanded my work into quantum logistics through the Quantum Technology Access Programme (QTAP), collaborating with Digital Catapult and ORCA Computing to develop quantum optimisation algorithms for complex multimodal transport networks.

Currently, I am involved in the TransiT digital twins decarbonisation project, where I develop agent-based models to support low-carbon strategies for ports and freight transport.

My broader interests include maritime sustainability, freight systems, digital twins, and the application of advanced technologies to real-world infrastructure challenges, particularly in Southeast Asia.
