I’ve been around cruising a non-linear pathway. Environment and education are mainly the topics that keep me busy. In the last five years, I completed a couple of rewarding assignments. Firstly, I worked on a sustainable transport project aiming at improving the urban transport system in Indonesia. Secondly, I worked on a campaign aiming at building people powered environmental movement to drive the energy transition toward 100% renewable energy in Indonesia. Now I am looking for new opportunities – trying different things and meeting new people! I am very much up for learning and experiencing everything that can bring positive impacts to people’s life. I enjoy exchanging ideas to find solutions and work with genuine people who are passionate and willing to do their best. And I always challenge myself, and the people I work with to do our best and bring meaning to everything we do.

I am quite an eclectic person. I was born and grew up in Jakarta which has exposed me to the dynamic of an urban socio-ecological system. And I am always passionate about the relationships between humans and our environment. I went on 2-week volunteering program to Komodo Island which was an eyeopening experience, more than just trapping the komodo dragons and measuring their size! I went on a student exchange program to Japan two times, and I also received another scholarship to do my Master’s at The University of Melbourne, Australia. I believe, these experiences have influenced my perspective in seeing the world and my vision of the person I aspire to be. I am good at influencing, motivating and gravitating people toward me. I am also quite meticulous which allows me to bring tasks around organising activities and reporting to a different level. So, if you are looking for someone who is committed, driven and enthusiastic about making a difference, drop me a line!
