Career progression since TP?
After TP, I was accepted as trainee in law firm, Armand Yapsunto Muharamsyah & Partners (f.k.aDNC Advocates at Law) and further being accepted as their Associate. I worked as a corporate lawyer for 6 years before deciding to pursue my career as an in-house counsel for PT Bank MaybankIndonesia Tbk earlier this year.

Personal highlights? 
Representing a client for million dollar transaction in cross border financing, handling an IPO transaction and many more.

Activities away from work? 
Mostly travelling abroad.

The future…..? 
Right now I'm focusing working in the Bank and I also plan to pursue my Masters degree in the future.

Reflections on your time in Kuala Lumpur and at Thomas Philip?
My time staying abroad for a while and working as an intern in TP at the same time was an experience that cannot be compared. To be able to learn about the comparative law also opened my knowledge and it has actually become beneficial when I'm now facing a foreign client: especially from a Malaysian company since I have the basic knowledge on how everything is working there. To be able to adapt to a new environment and get a glimpse of "lawyer" life was also a really valuable experience for me. Thank you, TP for giving the opportunity to the young me and so in time, help me to be able get to aspire to and secure my current position.
