I believe in the importance of financial inclusivity making financial services accessible to everyone to improve lives and communities. After completing this course, I aspire to build an impactful career with an international government body. If that opportunity doesn’t arise, I aim to pursue a career as a management consultant, focusing on the digital transformation of the finance industry.

Leading a traditional rural bank as CEO at a young age made me realize that effectively addressing future challenges requires a combination of practical experience and formal education. While managerial experience helps in solving present issues, I believe an MBA will provide the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the rapidly evolving challenges of my career. This MBA journey offers an opportunity not only to learn from accomplished lecturers but also to gain valuable insights from peers, many of whom bring diverse managerial expertise from their respective industries.

I am a banker with over nine years of experience specializing in the lending business. I began my career as an Account Officer at Bank Central Asia through its Management Development Program in 2015. In 2020, I joined a Peer-to-Peer Lending startup as a Business Development (BD) Senior Associate. I was promoted to BD Team Lead in 2021, BD Manager in 2022, and BD Senior Manager in 2023. Later, I became the CEO of Bank Kirana Indonesia, a £50 million rural bank, before pursuing an MBA at the University of Birmingham.
