I am an Indonesian food content creator and culinary educator with a strong background in cooking, baking, and recipe development. My specialty is creating approachable yet delicious dishes, with a focus on Indonesian cuisine, comfort food, and baked goods. I graduated with a degree in Culinary Business, where I developed both practical kitchen skills and a deep understanding of food entrepreneurship, menu development, and customer experience. Professionally, I have worked in food media and digital content creation, producing recipe videos, food photography, and engaging culinary content for social media audiences. Through this experience, I have learned how to break recipes down into simple, enjoyable steps that are easy for beginners to follow. I also have teaching experience as an adjunct lecturer in a culinary major at an Indonesian university, where I guided students in hospitality and food-related subjects. This strengthened my ability to explain concepts clearly, teach with patience, and create interactive learning experiences. Today, I combine my culinary knowledge, teaching background, and content creation skills to share authentic Indonesian flavors with international audiences through fun and accessible cooking classes.
