About

“A man who chooses hard things.”

Jakarta-born software engineer with 4+years shipping products, content creator, and lifelong learner. I started coding with HTML and a dream in 2021, and haven't stopped since. Right now I'm finishing my CS thesis at Universitas Mercu Buana while working full-time at Mekari — because coasting has never been my style.

The Context Switch series was born from learning AI on the job at Mekari and realizing most content about it was either too hype or too dense. So I made it simple. 39+ episodes and still going.

I volunteer as a Buddy at Mekari — mentoring new joiners through their first weeks. Outside the screen: running, music, the occasional video game, and a long-term goal of completing an Ironman. Because why set easy goals?

“everything is a win if the goal is experience.”

— personal philosophy
