Hi 👋 I’m Ari.
I’m a founder at Thrill Wave and Computer Science student at ASU. I’m an ex-Amazon worker whose passion was piqued in engineering. I aspire to make cool things with modern tech and human-centric design to innovate the way we live.
🎓 CS @ ASU: BS expected ‘25
💻 Prev. @ Amazon
🚀 Partner & Founder @ Thrill Wave
📍 Lives in Phoenix, AZ
🌎 Speaks English and Indonesian
💡 Fun facts: I’ve produced 70% of the world’s Crown Royal whisky (no ‘e’ in whiskey means it’s from Canada) 🥃, shipped over 350MM sodas 🚚, made a commercial that aired during the Olympics and launched a $15.6MM department at Amazon. I’m excited to contribute further with my start-up, Thrill Wave and a career path with my Computer Science degree.
🧍🏽♂️ In my spare time, I like to exercise, volunteer for ACDR, play music, take photos and make videos. With music, I’ve had mine featured in Complex magazine and performed with Pusha T. With videos, I’ve filmed for Shaq and Diplo— ask me about it sometime!

Writings
I’ve found that writing is a great way to get big thinks out of my head and make a concrete statement. It’s a cathartic and powerful way of communication. Here’s a blog of things I’ve written about (or plan to write about).
Portfolio
This website also serves as an archive and expose of my life’s work; personal, academic and professional. It’s a central nexus of key output that I’m proud of.
