Hi, I’m Michelle
Adiwangsa.

I'm a PhD Candidate at the School of Computing at the Australian National University, focusing on Human Computer Interaction, mixed reality, and games research. My doctoral research explores how augmented reality head-mounted displays can be designed to facilitate more immersive, inclusive, and engaging exercise and exergaming experiences at home. I have taught a variety of undergraduate/postgraduate computing courses at the university, and I have advised/co-supervised several student projects.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing badminton, board games, and video games, or trying to leave an escape room! I've contributed to several gaming community guides and crowdsourced databases to help other players with their gaming experiences.

I completed my Bachelor's degree in Advanced Computing with Honours at the Australian National University. My Honours research focused on Human Computer Interaction, where I designed and evaluated a mobile interactive application to reduce the rate of loneliness and isolation among international students in Australia. I also completed a specialisation in Intelligent Systems, and enrolled in some Psychology courses as my electives. I served as the design officer of the Indonesian Students Association at the university, and co-founded the chess club!
