- Postdoctoral Researcher in Collaborative Human-AI Interaction Culture, University of Technology Sydney
Indra is a postdoctoral researcher, dating host, and founder exploring the intersection of technology, relationships, and human connection.
Her work spans care, culture, and emotional wellbeing — whether she’s designing workshops with schools and families, hosting intimate events that reimagine modern dating, or advising on tech that prioritises empathy over efficiency. With a background in ethnographic research and digital health, Indra is driven by a single question: how can technology help us feel more seen, supported, and connected in our daily lives?
She brings warmth, insight, and a interdisciplinary lens to every project, blending academic rigour with real-world intimacy.
