I'm a passionate sustainability and climate education professional with over 6 years of experience designing and managing impactful international development programs across the Asia-Pacific region. Whether it's securing funding for global partnerships, leading educational campaigns, or managing multimillion-dollar US government projects, my work is grounded in the belief that informed action drives lasting change. Previously supported WASH and solid waste management initiatives at DAI Global, I leverage my background in international affairs, cross-cultural communication, and energy & environment policy to build programs that are both data-driven and community-centered. As a Fulbright alumnus with advanced Indonesian and Arabic language skills, I thrive in multicultural environments and pride myself on fostering collaboration between public, private, and nonprofit sectors.
