Never to late to study chase our dream
In 2007, I had the incredible opportunity to become one of the youngest founders of a non-profit organization in Bali, and possibly in Indonesia. Despite having only a high school education and the absence of a formal leadership degree, I followed my heart and passion to legally help the people of Bali, the island where I was born.
My travels across several Indonesian islands and my first visit to Singapore left me in awe of the towering modern buildings. During my second international trip to India, I witnessed the stark contrasts between wealth and poverty. These experiences, along with the many remote and underdeveloped villages I visited in Indonesia, fueled my resolve to make a difference, guided by a calling deep within my heart.
I am deeply grateful to Michael, whose unwavering support has always been a source of strength for me, even more so than my own parents. His encouragement reminds me of the song “You Raise Me Up.” In 2009, I began studying IT Management Informatics. collage Ganesha Guru Bali Indonesia. Juggling the early stages of YKPA, motherhood, and my studies was incredibly challenging. However, I persevered and earned my bachelor's degree in 2012, proudly bearing the title behind in my name AMd.
While many were proud of my educational accomplishment, I seldom use the title. In Indonesia, such titles are often used for government positions or corporate jobs. However, I have spent most of my life being self-employed and running my own small business, non profit organization.
