Marcomm Graduate (S.Ikom) · Building Writeen · Jakarta

I turn marketing insight into products people actually use.

I'm Safira — a Marketing Communication graduate who builds at the intersection of brand, growth, and product. From scaling TikTok creator ecosystems to founding Writeen and shipping Seoul Always solo, I like owning a problem end to end.

A strategist's mind, a builder's hands.

I'm a Marketing Communication graduate (S.Ikom) from Universitas Mercu Buana, finishing in 2026 with a 3.9 GPA. My work sits between two disciplines: understanding people well enough to market to them, and building the products that serve them.

That's shown up as scaling creator partnerships at TikTok and TNT Media, founding Writeen — an ed-tech literacy platform — and, more recently, designing and shipping Seoul Always entirely on my own, from empathy map to live product.

I care most about the handoff between insight and execution — the point where market research becomes a pitch deck, a pitch deck becomes a Business Model Canvas, and a BMC becomes a working interface someone can actually click through.

Selected work

Five projects, five different problems.

From a literacy startup to a solo-built e-commerce product — each one paired research with execution.

Focus
Digital literacy, e-learning, mentoring

I identified a critical gap in Indonesian youth digital literacy and academic access, which led to designing a one-on-one mentoring, gamified e-learning and publication ecosystem. Using deep market sizing and a Business Model Canvas, I built logical learning paths and interactive quizzes that lower the barrier for students and young writers to develop and showcase their work.

Impact

Empowered hundreds of youth nationwide to learn and enhance literacy skills — earning a Gold Medal at KIWIE 2025, 1st Place at the UNPAR Pitching Competition, a Silver Medal at the World Young Inventor Exhibition (WYIE), and a Top 20 spot in Pertamuda 2024.

What I learned

End-to-end product architecture, user-centric problem solving, empathy mapping, pitching to partners, and using technology to drive scalable social impact.

Youth career development community

I recognized the lack of accessible career development resources for Indonesian youth and helped design a structured community platform focused on skill building and mentorship, implementing data-driven engagement initiatives and collaborative learning programs to bridge education and workforce readiness.

Impact

Empowered young people across multiple program tracks, enabling measurable soft-skills development and direct access to career mentorship and professional opportunities — including a single intake that drew 2,000+ applicants.

Community-led product iteration — listening to user needs, designing collaborative learning frameworks, and tracking engagement metrics.
