Three things people may not know about you:

  • My parents have 10 children and I am the youngest, so basically I grew up around many siblings and learned how to appreciate others.
  • I wrote two books in my native language that were published by the National Publisher in Indonesia. I want to publish my third book after I’m finished with my studies here.
  • I used to play tennis every weekend when I was back home, but I am not good anymore since I haven’t played or taken lessons since I came here.
