About Me

Developer & Postgrad Student

I'm a Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) graduate from Universiti Malaya. Now I'm pursuing a Master's by Research in Computer Science at Universiti Malaya. I like taking ideas from AI, computer vision and robotics and turning them into things that just run.

I also work as a full-stack developer in Intekma's Digital Technology Solutions team, digitising the company's workflows with web apps, LLMs and MCP. I've competed at RoboCup with Team RobotEdge, from the national stage in Malaysia to Abu Dhabi and Beijing, working on the brains behind service robots and humanoid soccer players. Away from the screen, I've been through military training with PALAPES (ROTU UM), and I love playing guitar.
