Hello,
I am a lecturer, technology enthusiast and philanthropist with a strong commitment to advancing academic funding and research in higher education.
My research interests lie at the intersection of public policy, digital technology, global politics and democratic development. I am a co-founder of Warung Data Indonesia, a data-driven service company specialising in turning large volumes of scattered online and offline data into actionable intelligence. Our core services include data analysis, machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), and big data management.
I nurture my passion for academia by teaching Civic in the International Class Program at The Health Polytechnic of the Ministry of Health (Poltekkes Kemenkes Jakarta), while bringing over a decade of experience working with non-governmental organizations on civic engagement and public policy advocacy.
Previously, I served as Program Manager at Aliansi Kebangsaan, where I led the development and implementation of nation-building initiatives and fostered collaborative socio-political dialogue to strengthen democracy in Indonesia.
Currently, I manage the Research Funding Program at Yayasan Dana Darma Pancasila, under the leadership of Yudi Latif, PhD. The program supports Master’s and Doctoral students in completing their academic projects across diverse fields, allowing me to contribute directly to the advancement of scholarship and the development of the next generation of researchers
I hold a Master’s degree in Political Science from Universitas Indonesia and a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science from Universitas Nasional, with additional studies in International Relations at Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU), Turkey.
I previously began a Doctoral Program at Universitas Indonesia but paused my studies during pregnancy and early motherhood—an experience that strengthened my resilience and deepened my commitment to continue my PhD journey at an institution aligned with my multidisciplinary research interests.
I also actively support women in academia through my volunteer work with PhD Mama Indonesia (PMI), a community that helps women scholars balance motherhood and academic life.
