About me

Since I was nine, helping my mom run her small fashion shop in Indonesia, I saw firsthand how small businesses uplift communities. Her shop not only provided for our family but also created opportunities for single mothers and women with limited education, helping them support their households and send their children to school. Yet, its impact remained limited by the shop’s small network. This made me wonder—how could technology scale this kind of social impact, extending opportunities to a much broader reach?

I pursued a degree in Management Science and Engineering at Columbia University, where I focused on applying technology to real-world problems. My career at Deloitte Consulting involved leading AI projects that improved efficiency in telecommunications, finance, and oil & gas industries, enhancing how these sectors operate.

At the Stealth Startup, my role as a Product Manager has evolved through distinct and impactful phases. Initially, I was tasked with creating an AI chatbot designed for companionship. My main challenge was to engineer a chatbot that responds intelligently and adapts its personality to fit user interactions, ensuring a more personalized and engaging experience.

Next, I tackled a pressing issue for international students by developing a solution that simplifies their apartment hunting process. This required a deep understanding of their unique needs and resulted in a tailored platform that helps them find suitable housing quickly and efficiently. Currently, my focus is on the healthcare sector, where I am driving the development and validation of solutions aimed at increasing access to healthcare for pregnant mothers.

In each project, my approach has been hands-on and results-oriented, with a clear focus on solving real problems through technology. One clear thing: my goal as a Product Manager is always to address tough challenges that can create substantial positive changes in the world.

Outside of work, I'm either exploring the world of ice mochas, trying every blend I can find, hoping for FC Barcelona to finally get it together, or attempting to hike with seasoned trekkers. I'm the amateur in the group, just trying to keep up and have fun doing whatever they need me to do!
