š My Learning Journey
I come from a small village in Bogor, Indonesia, and I feel truly grateful for the journey that led me into software engineering, filled with both challenges and personal growth.
I was not always the top student, but during high school, I developed a genuine interest in math, physics, and programming. Even though I had limited support at the time, that passion became the foundation for my understanding of computer science.
I later earned a place at the University of Indonesia to study Information Systems despite coming from unpopular high school, where I explored both technical subjects in computer science and concepts in business.
During my time there, I joined various IT-related competitions, volunteer activities, and student initiatives. My goal was not to be the best, but to keep improving and expanding my knowledge and skills.
These efforts also led me to internships at respected companies such as Ninja Van, Accenture, Mandiri, and GudangAda. Each opportunity contributed meaningfully to my professional development.
Through this journey, I have come to understand that what matters most is not where you begin, but how persistent, curious, and open you are to every opportunity that comes your way.
My growth has been shaped by hands-on experience, insightful tutorials on YouTube, and a wide range of enriching resources that continue to fuel my passion for building, designing, and sharing ideas through technology.
