Research & Product · Human-AI Interaction

I'm a UX researcher and product manager interested in the intersection of artificial intelligence and human wellbeing. I research how people experience technology, then I help build it better. My work focuses on how AI systems can support, rather than simulate, genuine human connection.

I have 4+ years experience across Indonesia's startup ecosystem — from community building and business development to AI product development and research. I hold a Master's in Information Systems Management from BINUS University, where my thesis explored AI-enhanced mental health counseling for Indonesian youth, supported by a research grant from Indonesia's Ministry of Higher Education (DIKTI) and Sawtooth Software academic grant . I believe that technology should always point people back to real human relationships.
