A brief description.

Builder and problem solver. I like turning real problems into things that people can actually use.


About me.

I'm a Computer Science student who enjoys making things. Most of the time, that means writing software, but I've never been particularly interested in technology for its own sake.

What interests me is the problem on the other side of it: understanding what someone actually needs, figuring out what might help, and turning that idea into something real. Sometimes that's a web application. Sometimes it's an AI system, a data model, a hardware project, or a solution that has little to do with code at all.

I enjoy working across disciplines because useful solutions rarely fit neatly into one of them. Building something often means understanding technology, design, business, data, and most importantly, the people who will eventually use it.

How I build.

I learn by building. Reading and studying are important, but there is something different about trying to make an idea work in the real world. That's where assumptions become obvious, edge cases appear, and the things I thought I understood turn out to be slightly wrong.

I usually start by understanding the problem before deciding on the solution. From there, I like to build, test what I can, learn from what breaks, and keep refining the idea. The technology is part of the process, not the destination.

I'm still learning, and that's probably why I enjoy building so much. Every project gives me another excuse to learn something I didn't know before.

Selected recognition.

What I write about.

This website is also where I keep track of what I'm learning and thinking about. Not everything belongs in a project README.

Technology

Things I'm learning, building, and noticing in technology, from software development and AI to broader changes in how people create and work with technology.

Life

Personal reflections, experiences, questions, and whatever else seems worth thinking about for a little longer than a passing thought.

Faith

Reflections on my Catholic faith, liturgy, doctrine, and the ongoing process of figuring out what it means to actually live what I believe.

Outside of building things.

Technology is a big part of my life, but thankfully, not all of it. I'm also a pianist and organist, and I've spent quite a bit of time playing music, especially in the context of Catholic liturgy.

My Catholic faith is another important part of who I am. It naturally finds its way into some of my writing, especially when I'm trying to make sense of questions that don't have a particularly convenient Stack Overflow answer.

About the writing: I write in both English and Indonesian. I use whichever language feels more natural for the subject and the idea I'm trying to express.
