I have nine years of experience working in the biodiversity conservation sector in Indonesia and Southeast Asia. I obtained my Bachelor's Degree in Biology at Universitas Indonesia, then a Master's Degree in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation with a concentration in Tropical Conservation and Development at the University of Florida, USA. Then, I worked as a conservation scientist in the Wildlife Conservation Society Indonesia Program.
At the same time, I have co-founded and co-led a conservation NGO based in Sulawesi to protect threatened yet overlooked wildlife. I am currently doing my PhD in Environmental Sciences, Policy, and Management at the University of California Berkeley supported by Fulbright Indonesia.
