Azzahra Rahmani Ali
Before joining Ross, I accumulated 8+ years of experience in the banking and tech sectors. I spent over 3 years as a Product Manager in consumer banking, specializing in MSME and digital lending. During this time, I led several transformative projects, from portfolio mergers to risk assessment and analytics for new credit lines. I've also done several projects with the Central Bank of Indonesia (BI) and the Indonesia Financial Services Authority (OJK) on financial inclusion and digital banking initiatives.
Recognizing the rapid growth of digital technology in Indonesia, I made a career pivot to the tech sector, joining Tokopedia—one of Indonesia's largest e-commerce companies. Over the next 5+ years, I progressed from Senior Associate to Senior Manager, taking on diverse roles spanning business operations, marketing, and business development strategies, with a focus on the consumer products/CPG sectors.
I chose Ross because I am passionate about business strategy and making an impact. Pivoting to consulting felt like the ideal path for me, as I thrive on solving complex business challenges and sharing actionable insights. Ross’ emphasis on action-based learning, including opportunities like student-run funds, aligns perfectly with my aspirations post-MBA.
Beyond professional and academic pursuits, I'm also a mom of 3.5 years daughter and a passionate coffee analyst. Reflecting on my MBA application journey, I know how overwhelming the process can be, especially for international students.
