Why did you choose the Adam Smith Business School?

The school's reputation as part of the Russell Group and its triple accreditation were significant factors in my decision. The school's namesake, a towering figure in economics, and the vast network of accomplished alumni promised a rich educational experience and invaluable connections.

What did you enjoy the most about your programme? How has your degree helped you in your career?

The case study methodology was particularly engaging, offering practical insights into business operations. This programme has enriched my theoretical understanding, previously shaped by hands-on experience, and honed my analytical and structured thinking skills, all of which have been instrumental in advancing my career.

What is your top piece of advice for current students?

Embrace every opportunity the university offers—courses, societies, workshops, and competitions. Participating in business competitions was not only memorable but also profoundly insightful, enhancing my educational experience beyond the classroom. 

What have you been up to since graduating from the Business School?

Since graduating, I've focused on expanding my small business and mentoring Indonesian youth. I aim to inspire them to pursue international education, broadening their perspectives and unlocking their potential.
