Professional Biography

Building software systems with technical discipline.

As a Bachelor of Computer Science (S.Kom.) graduate from Universitas Tarumanagara, I have experience contributing as a Research Assistant with a focus on recommendation systems. My academic background in Information Technology reflects a strong foundation in software development, data management, and applied research. During my time at Universitas Tarumanagara, I leveraged my skills in Laravel, IoT, and database design to support and deliver research-driven solutions. My professional experience as a Full-Stack Web Developer at FTI Untar and JIAC further strengthened my ability to build reliable, scalable, and maintainable web applications in real-world environments. With certifications in advanced SQL and instructional roles, I am committed to delivering innovative, efficient, and impactful technological solutions through collaboration, analytical thinking, and continuous learning.

Early Passion & Origin

My Relationship with Technology

How an innate curiosity about computing evolved into formal computer science study and practical engineering execution.

My journey in technology began with a deep curiosity about how computer systems, multimedia technologies, and code interact with hardware. From early hands-on involvement with multimedia production and software scripting to formal academic studies in Information Systems at Universitas Tarumanagara, I built a solid foundation across software development, database architecture, and IoT telematics. Over the years, this evolved into practical engineering execution—building enterprise academic portals, implementing recommendation algorithms (TF-IDF), authoring research papers on IoT fleet tracking, and guiding over 100 students as an Assistant Lecturer and Laboratory Instructor.
