ABOUT / PROFILE
Making sense of complexity and building from it.
My work connects political and economic reporting, digital media, software products and business operations.
BACKGROUND
I started as a journalist covering Indonesia’s political economy, energy policy, macroeconomic indicators and Japanese manufacturing supply chains. I later helped launch DIGIDAY Japan as an editor.
As founder of Axion, I worked across subscription news products, technology, financing and operations. The news service ended in December 2023 and the company became dormant in January 2024. From January to November 2024 I pursued AI agent MVP development and fundraising activities under the Axion name, integrating RAG, company data and market data.
More recently I worked on banking-sector B2B marketing, software development operations and business management in Vietnam. In March 2026, I started impkt as a personal project exploring financial analysis software for manufacturers.
