Just within a month, we have five new faces in Maverick.

The first one is Dian I. Kartikasari, who joined us on August 15. Dian joined Maverick with 8 years of working experience at PT Levi’s Strauss Indonesia, handling various aspect of its business, such as product development, retail services, as well as advertising and promotion.

“What I really like about Maverick is its openness and flexibility. Another thing that struck me is the way each individual shoulders their professional roles individually yet able to work as a cohesive team and to celebrate each other’s uniqueness and differences,” said Dian.

Dian holds a BA degree from the Faculty of Mass Communications, Padjadjaran University and was a student in the AFS intercultural learning exchange to Australia.

Just one day after Dian, we were delighted to welcome Lia Marpaung. Lia came with seven years experience in development work, most recently for The Asia Foundation and Unicef. She assisted in managing program implementation on health and education for children and women in the most eastern province in Indonesia, Papua and Papua Barat.

“I’m glad that my previous experience in media relations and in the development sector has come in handy. Maverick has given me the framework and better understanding of what I learnt and experienced before. I am now looking forward to learn more with Maverick.”

Lia obtained her bachelor degree from the Faculty of Social and Political Science, University of Indonesia, majoring in Business Administration. She is currently pursuing her master degree majoring in Planning and Public Policy Program at the Economics Faculty of University of Indonesia.

And early this week, we have Finne – Azalea Firnindya – joining us. Finnie is a fresh graduate from the Extension Program of Faculty of Social and Politic, University of Indonesia, majoring in Public Relations. She’s been working as a freelance reporter and fashion stylish of Seventeen Magazine.

The Mavericks are also thrilled to have an intern joining us. Karmila Wijayanti – Mila - is a 7th semester student of Social & Political Science Faculty, Communications Department Atma Jaya Yogyakarta University, Yogyakarta, Majoring in Public Relations. She is going to enjoy and experience the consultancy work for a month from early this month.

Last but not least, by the end of this week, we will also have Joyce Hutapea joining us as Associate. Joyce is a familiar face in Maverick as she’s been working in the media tracking division since January this year. Joyce, a graduate of Parahyangan Catholic Universtity (UNPAR), majoring of Economic Science and Development expressed her interest to learn more about public relations and we are giving her the learning opportunity by seconding her to the consultancy.
