About Me
I am Adelia, a seasoned copywriter with over five years of professional experience in the creative industry.
After graduating with a Communication Studies degree from Universitas Gadjah Mada, I have worked at prominent advertising agencies and media companies in Indonesia.
Throughout my career, I have been channeling my word-crafting skills to spark conversations in various contexts and platforms. I have helped brands connect effectively with their target audience and built engaging narratives through creative writing.
Writing has always brought me joy, and I do it with profound love. I believe what one does with love, one does wonderfully.
