About Elfi
I started working in the Fashion industry in 1996, after working 7 years in various fashion sectors. In 2003, I was invited to be a teacher at Esmod Jakarta. Since then, slowly but surely, I started to love working as a teacher. The feeling of sharing the knowledge I have with many people and becoming useful for others makes me feel happy and joyful. Every time I see my students successful, I feel blessed. I want to dedicate my life to teaching and sharing the knowledge that I have for the rest of my life. On the other side, I also build my own fashion brand for resort wear in Bali - Indonesia and am a member of a Fashion Association in Indonesia.
