About Me
I'm a fresh graduate from Politeknik Negeri Bandung (Diploma in English, GPA 3.65/4.00) with a technical foundation from my earlier studies in Computer and Network Engineering. That combination is what drives my work as a Writer and Developer.

Whether I’m diagnosing a hardware failure, deploying a WordPress site, or translating legal-tech documents, I bring hands-on technical context to every project. I bridge the gap between 'how it works' and 'why it matters'.
