How did you get into music?
I liked music since I was little but never thought I'd be working in the business. From work with a music publisher I progressed to the Hard Rock Café, and now am a director and co-founder of an Entertainment Group.
Where do you want to be in your music career and how far along that road are you now?
I want to establish my own consultancy company, and feel I am on the right track.
How does your work stand out from the crowd?
I directly influence and manage several popular music programmes at the Hard Rock Café (Indonesia).
