04 / About

Engineer by training, designer by habit, researcher at heart.

I started as a graphic designer in a campus open-source community, moved into web development, and went deep into knowledge graphs and machine learning during my master's at IPB University.

Today I build payment systems and backend services — and I still care about how things look and feel. Kiki is what most people call me.
