Summary

Seasoned business leader with a distinguished career in market development, strategic planning, and executive leadership. I bring a diverse international background, having co-founded Global Expandia and successfully navigated its acquisition by VISTRA, where I served as Executive Director, driving substantial business growth in Indonesia. My journey has equipped me with a robust understanding of strategic management and international business, complemented by extensive experience in human resources across various sectors.


With professional experience in both Asia and Europe and fluency in several languages, I have developed a strong ability to adapt to multicultural settings. My career journey has instilled in me the capacity to learn quickly, enabling me to become productive shortly after joining a new team.


I am adept at delivering results both independently, with minimal supervision, and as part of multicultural, cross-functional teams. As a high-energy, self-driven individual, I possess strong problem-solving skills and excellent communication abilities. These attributes have allowed me to build trust and establish myself as a valuable partner in my assignments and projects.
