Career Area of Interest

I have been working for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Indonesia for 10 years as a foreign service officer. I believe that my 2-year study of Master of Global Affairs at Rice University would be able to give me, not only knowledge and theories about international affairs, but also to learn first-hand experiences in building networks and connection with stakeholders both from public and private sectors.

I have a huge interest in the energy security issue and geopolitical aspect of it. I am certain that the program opens up opportunities with the resources it has for the student to do an in-depth learning experience in the energy sector. That is the main reason why I chose Rice University's MGA for my Master study in the first place.
