I'm a Computer Science undergraduate at BINUS University, focused on machine learning, reinforcement learning, and agentic AI. I previously contributed to undergraduate research on reinforcement learning and continue developing AI systems for research, Agentic AI agents, and software for developer and technical education.

I co-authored a paper published in Procedia Computer Science (2026) on dynamic pricing for electric vehicle charging stations. Our research modeled stochastic demand, queueing dynamics, and capacity constraints, comparing a Double Deep Q-Network (Double DQN) pricing policy against rule-based strategies. In our simulations, Double DQN achieved over 30% higher average revenue than the strongest rule-based baseline. My projects include Learning Agent ADK (Kythe), built with Google's Agent Development Kit and Gemini, which conducts iterative research, evaluates generated content through deterministic quality checks, and produces structured learning materials. I'm also developing Arahin-AI, which focuses on curriculum extraction, diagnosing student misconceptions, and targeted learning remediation.
