I am a researcher and a dedicated preservationist of Southeast Asian cultural heritage. My research focuses on Islamic manuscript studies and their lived practices within the context of Indonesian Muslim societies. I am particularly interested in how these historical texts intersect with local identity and contemporary religious life.

My expertise lies in rescuing endangered intellectual treasures. Having managed large-scale digital repository projects, I am committed to ensuring that Southeast Asian manuscripts are not just archived but remain vibrant and accessible. I am passionate about making manuscript studies accessible to the public, which I pursue through my YouTube channel, "Cinta Manuskrip Nusantara," as well as through regular contributions to academic journals, books, and essays.
