- Born in Indonesia, grew up in California, settled down in Singapore, spends a lot of time in Japan.
- Officially a designer, but I can be found pushing front-end code onto our code repo.
- I once won a blind-coding challenge at a CSS Conf, which was to recreate a website using just a simple text editor without previewing the code. I credit this to my childhood habit of using good ol' Notepad to code.
- When not designing or coding, I like to write in my travel blog (girleatworld.net) and take photos of food for my instagram (@girleatworld).
