More about me

From a young age, I was always the “superhero girl” standing up to bullies and rallying my peers around causes that mattered—before I even knew what fundraising was, I was leading events to make a difference. Co-founding multiple social impact ventures, I’m proud to have won design awards for projects that prioritize environmental and social good. With a background in Visual Communication and Interaction Design from Pelita Harapan University (Indonesia) and Delft University of Technology (the Netherlands), my journey has taken me across the globe. 

Why are forests important to me

Forests are more than just a natural escape—they’re a source of energy, grounding, and renewal for me. As the lungs of our planet, they play a vital role in housing diverse wildlife and act as a frontline defense against the climate crisis.

Why Canopy

My commitment to environmental activism has long driven me to attend rallies, sign petitions, and stand alongside First Nations communities to protect their lands from harmful development. At Canopy, I’ve found a home where I can amplify my impact on protecting the planet—and work with the most talented, compassionate, and fun team members, the Canopals!
