Studying towards a Doctor of Philosophy in Information Systems

Country of origin: Indonesia

Location: Level 3, Karl Popper

 

My career started from operational and fieldwork retail sales position before transitioning to the strategical area, where I continued to develop my analytical and consulting experience. I have done many projects and analysis based on big data to improve process performance, especially in the retail business.

Currently, I am a PhD student in Information Systems at the University of Canterbury. Previously, I worked in one of the biggest hospital chains in Indonesia. I graduated with an MSc in Marketing and Business Analysis at the University of Edinburgh with a focus on data mining, problem-solving, marketing research, and digital marketing.

I am becoming an expert practitioner in the Telecommunication, Social, and Health Industry with more than fourteen years of extensive experience. Furthermore, I have also been certified as a Project Management Professional (PMP) since 2014 and as an Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) expert since 2022.

My doctoral research aims to describe how do first-time Southeast Asian fathers information seeking behaviour when searching for pregnancy information. I personally hope that the results of this research study can close current miscommunication and bridge the understanding between fathers and pregnancy content providers. Thus, by getting enough information about pregnancy, fathers can be more involved with the pregnancy and hopefully lead to better maternal development.
