1. How long were you in Sekolah Ciputra? Starting from what grade until what grade?
3 years, from Grade 10 – Grade 12.

2. After graduating from Sekolah Ciputra, where do you study? What is your major?
Universitas Ciputra, majoring in Architecture & Property with a full scholarship.

3. What is your current activity?
Other than being a student, I’m currently a Publications & Public Relations Coordinator for the Undergraduate Students Association of Architecture at Universitas Ciputra (HIMA) where we held various events for fellow architecture students.
I’m also in my second year of undergoing my part time job as UC Ambassador where I create content and post it on UC’s social media accounts (Instagram and TikTok).
I have also won several national and regional competitions within the field of business essay and architectural sketching during my first year.

4. What do you expect to do after graduating from university?
For now, my plan is to continue my education and pursue a master’s degree abroad, hopefully with another full scholarship.

5. In what way did Sekolah Ciputra contribute to who you are right now?
I would say Sekolah Ciputra has contributed tremendously to academic writing. When I was in high school, we were trained to write essays and reports frequently, as well as opportunities to write Personal Projects and Extended Essays. For this reason, I’m now confident in my academic writing which helps me daily with my university assignments.
Other than academic writing, since I chose Visual Arts & Design Technology as my IBDP subjects, I was able to learn various media, tools, and machineries during my time at Sekolah Ciputra. Opportunities to explore all facilities and tools at the Maker Space and Visual Arts class has helped to practice my visual presentation skills and broaden my understanding of the design world (materials, techniques, etc) which are fundamental as an architecture student.

6. What was the best thing about Sekolah Ciputra? Tell us something memorable from your time at Sekolah Ciputra
The best thing about Sekolah Ciputra was performing at the DBL Arena and Ciputra Hall. Sekolah Ciputra has given numerous opportunities where I was able to perform in front of large audiences and train my performing skills, such as when I participated in DBL Cheerleading Team 2022, The “Aladdin” School Production 2022, and the Grade 12 Farewell Assembly. This experience remains one of my most memorable moments during high school.

7. What advice would you give to a graduating student?
Start compiling all of your achievements and experiences throughout high school in the form of a portfolio (if you are an art & design student then this is very much encouraged). The reason why I’m suggesting this is because Sekolah Ciputra has given you numerous activities that could be starred in your portfolio. Things like the National Honor Society, School Production, and Personal Projects are activities that are only offered at Sekolah Ciputra as an IB school. Believe it or not, these experiences have helped tremendously at university applications as it is one of the main reasons as to how I was awarded with a full ride scholarship.

8. Would you recommend Sekolah Ciputra to others? If yes, what would you say about it?
Personally, I would definitely recommend Sekolah Ciputra to others. Sekolah Ciputra is an amazing school, filled with modern facilities that support your academic development, offering a wide variety of subject choices for the IBDP programme, supportive and caring teachers and friends, and numerous opportunities for you to grow both academically and non-academically.

9. What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
Recently I’ve been taking quite an interest in traveling and documentation. I like to explore a new place whether it’s a new city or a new country and take photos & videos of its buildings, cultures, food, and so on. For me, documenting my activities and where I go is like keeping the memories alive since I could always look back at it in the future.
