Ig : simjs_00

Im mix Chinese and Indian born and raised in Jakarta, Indonesia. Born from a heterogeneous family and in a heterogeneous country give me an opportunity to value and respect diversity of any culture. For me culture and history shape us to be a person who we are now and a country that we live in.

On daily basis i work as a software engineer. I used to work in some of the unicorn startup in indonesia that covers e-commerce, logistics and travel sector. Now i’m currently work in mostly financial sector in one of the corporate in indonesia. Since im a Software Engineer i can work from anywhere. If you are curious about what im doing feel free to ask anything about it to me especially the programming stack.

I considered myself as a generalist and specialist at the same time. I like to learn things besides what i do to expand my knowledge and skills. You can consider me as M shape person.

My values are freedom. I believe every person have the rights to make its own decision based on their free will but with high conscience and responsibility of what they decide. So im pro of basic human rights to live and express themselves.

My hobby is simply like to eat exotic food, drink in the weekends and talk and discuss about our current society what’s wrong with it and how we can make it better . I also like water sport like diving and snorkeling. For hiking mountains i still got some sort acrophobia that i still try to manage, hope it can better soon so i can explore the mountains as well.
