The Journey
Computer Science Undergraduate Student
BINUS University · Malang, Indonesia
Pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at Binus Malang. Built a strong academic foundation in algorithms, data structures, object-oriented programming, and database management.
Visual Jockey
Dinamika Multimedia · Malang, Indonesia
As a freelance VJ, I design and execute real-time visual compositions for over 20 events, including concerts, corporate galas, and weddings. Using Resolume Arena, I manage technical setups like LED mapping, projection blending, and signal routing while syncing visuals seamlessly with live audio. I collaborate closely with lighting teams and event coordinators to deliver unified, high-impact visual experiences.
Event Coordinator
Little Things EO & Little Things Bride · Malang, Indonesia
I direct lighting design and FOH operations across more than 15 event productions, overseeing end to end technical execution for sound, stage flow, and live streaming. Partnering with cross functional production teams, I align every element to guarantee seamless event delivery. My rapid troubleshooting during live shows resolves real time technical issues instantly and maintains zero show disruptions.

How I Build
Every project follows a structured process — from understanding the problem to shipping a polished solution.
Research
Understand the problem, audience, and constraints before writing a single line.
Design
Plan the architecture, data flow, and user experience.
Build
Clean, scalable code with modern tools and best practices.
Test
Automated tests, edge cases, and cross-browser checks.
Deploy
Ship with CI/CD, monitor performance, iterate fast.
Beyond the Code
When I'm not building things, here's what keeps me going.
I Went From Cast Member to Code Builder
In high school, I was a cast member in my school's musical production "REANIMAR" and ran the live streaming team. Now I build enterprise AI platforms. The common thread? Both require coordinating multiple moving parts under pressure — just with fewer dance rehearsals.
My Code Runs in Shops With No Internet
SE_Toko, the POS system I built, works completely offline. I designed it for rural retail stores where the internet drops every 10 minutes. The IndexedDB sync queue ensures no transaction is ever lost — even if the WiFi gives up, the business doesn't.
I Made AI Argue With Itself
In TierLog, I built a "guarded AI oracle" that uses multiple AI providers (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, Groq) and makes them cross-check each other to prevent hallucination. It's like having four very smart interns who don't trust each other — and that's exactly the point.
From LED Walls to Code Walls
I started as a Visual Jockey running Resolume Arena for weddings and concerts before I wrote my first line of production code. Turns out, syncing visuals to live audio and debugging real-time API calls require the same skill — staying calm when everything breaks at once.

The Philosophy
"We shape our digital structures; thereafter they shape our perception of reality."
