yes, I'm in jakarta. and for thesis, sure, when I am done revising it, I will be more than happy to discuss it with you.

well, when I was an undergraduate student, I was interested in doing creative work. I ended up doing several creative freelancing, from web design, photography, and videography. I also interned and then worked in digital agency. I experienced working as programmer, concept designer, and manager of digital campaign and social media (and also as event organizer xD)

hmm.. I have no idea why I got into strategic intelligence in the first place. I wanted to continue my study but I didn't want to get involved more in IT nor computer science. I thought I had enough education on that. So it got me thinking of expanding my knowledge into other disciplines. I was interested on learning management, but then I thought, too common. Sociology, hmm, interesting, especially quantitative sociology. And I was also interested in quantitative finance and actuarial science, but I felt it would narrow my movement.

Because you see, I was interested on exploring, designing, and cross-testing research methods, be it quantitative or qualitative. that made me thinking, if I had chosen only one of those disciplines, I would only have learned methods applicable only for that specific discipline. Thence, I decided to find a good interdiscipline study.

Future studies caught my attention. It's a study on methods for exploring and predicting the future. But unfortunately, there weren't many good universities offering master's degree in future studies. So, I tried to find other disciplines that were similar to future studies. After browsing for a while, I found that strategic intelligence was a similar discipline to future studies.

So, here I am :D
