When I was in my early pregnancy, my father gave me a piece of wood and a roll of macrame thread. He told me that those had to become a macrame item. I didn't know how, so I researched on the Internet and learned online. For my tools, I use only scissors and all my designs are handmade. Now, I have my own workshop where nine men and 60 women artisans collaborate with me. I was born in, Buleleng, Bali in 1994, the first born in the family. At that time when I was a little , our life wasn't easy. My father was a teakwood seller, and hadn't yet begun working in macrame. When he went to sell teakwood, he could be gone for a month or two, and the income was not good. We lived below the poverty line, and even my brother and sister and I had to collect wood from the nearest beach after school. We did that to help my mother. The difficulties in my life continued until I was in junior high school. My parents divorced, and that was the hardest moment of my life. Even though the economy wasn't good, I still continue my studies to senior high school. With the cost of my education covered by my grandmother, mother, and father, I finally passed senior high school. Despite the bad economy and my parents' divorce, I didn't give up. Having grown so much is not without problems. I organized our work
