Brief bio:
I was born in Indonesia but spent my childhood and early teen years split between Indonesia and Australia. I hold a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from , Indonesia, a master's degree in engineering mathematics from the , the Netherlands, and a PhD degree in engineering and information science from the . After receiving my PhD degree in 2007, I was a Research Fellow in the Department of Engineering, ANU, in 2007-2008, and then an ARC APD Fellow from 2009-2011. I joined the School of Electrical Engineering and Telecommunications at UNSW in 2012 as a Senior Lecturer.
My academic background is in Electrical Engineering and Applied Mathematics with a focus on systems and control. However, my research has intersections with other fields. In particular, my research in quantum systems and quantum control intersects with quantum physics while my research on control of microgrids intersects with power engineering. If you are interested in doing master's by research or PhD research with me inmy areas of interest(see the section on "My Research Activities" below for more details), please read the information provided in the information on graduate studies section below.

My research lies at the intersection of control engineering and systems and control theory with the following disciplines:
- Quantum physics (in particular, quantum optics)
- Energy systems (microgrids and distributed energy generation)
Topics that are of current interest and I have worked on in the pastinclude:
- Classical and quantum stochastic systems
- Quantum feedback control
- Quantum system identification and parameter estimation
- Linear quantum systems theory and their applications
- Model reduction theory
- Applications of control theory to renewable energy systems
- Decentralised and distributed control of renewable energy systems
I am a Senior Member of the IEEE and was Chair of the organising committee for the international workshop that was held at UNSW in July 2015.
I co-authored (with Naoki Yamamoto of Keio University) the Springer research monograph in Springer's Communications and Control Engineering series.
