Indonesian C2English C1German C1 (Goethe)Chinese B2 (HSK)
Born and raised in Indonesia. By the time I started university I spoke four languages above B2: Indonesian, English, German, and Chinese.
I also ran a small online shop on Shopee and Tokopedia for seven years — product listings, pricing, orders, customer service. First-hand learning on how pricing and presentation change what shoppers buy.

Final grade 1.4 · Top 5%3× DeutschlandstipendiumThesis 1.0
I started at TUM in 2023 after one year at Studienkolleg Mainz to bring my German up to academic level. I graduated in September 2026 with a final grade of 1.4 — top 5% of the year. Three years of Deutschlandstipendium.
My thesis was a 1.0: Sustainable Sourcing for Chitosan Production, comparing insect and crustacean supply chains. On the SAP–TUM Research Collaboration (ESG Finance Lab), our team worked on allocating indirect costs and carbon emissions at product level — SAP rated the results “outstanding”.
Since 2023 I’ve also been Operations and Finance Coordinator at TEDxTUM. We run a yearly event for around 500 people. I manage the €10K budget and the sponsorship contracts.

ChitoTrap
A B2B microplastic laundry filter · co-founder, 2025–2026
ChitoTrap is a chitosan-based laundry filter that catches microplastics before they reach the wash water. We built it for Stanford’s Global Sustainability Challenge, where we became the global winner (after first winning Europe). UCL VC Fund, ChemPreneur 1st place, and a live pilot at IIT Bombay.
I cold-called hotel managers to validate the pain point, cold-emailed appliance makers until three letters of intent landed (Whirlpool, Bosch, LG), and built the pitch deck, bottom-up market sizing and unit economics (LTV/CAC). Selected for the Stanford EcoGlobal Program.

Full-time Sales and Business Development roles
Sales & BD, full-timeAvailable from April 2027Open to relocate
I’m looking for a full-time Sales or Business Development role, starting April 2027. Open to relocate.
I know consumer goods and shoppers from three sides: seven years running a small online shop in Indonesia, shopper research at EDEKA in Bavaria, and go-to-market plus paid ads for an FMCG food startup. In between, I’ve sold B2B cloud at AWS and co-founded ChitoTrap — so the sales motion, the account mindset and the appetite for cold outreach are already there.
