About

I am a PhD candidate at the Department of Geography, King’s College London interested in exploring how new forms of urbanisation are taking place in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. Particularly, I am looking at how Nusantara, Indonesia’s new capital city, emerged from a confluence of historical, political, and social forces at different spatiotemporal scales. By extension, it introduces new dynamics of urbanisation and urbanism in the region and beyond.

I am a recipient of the London Arts & Humanities Partnership Doctoral Training Partnership (LAHP DTP) studentship, funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Council (AHRC). I hold an MPhil in Human Geography from the University of Oslo and a BEng in Urban and Regional Planning at Bandung Institute of Technology.
