Rusniwati Mau

Rusni was born and raised in the village of Alor Besar, the eldest of her siblings and a natural caretaker from a young age. Growing up in a farming family, she learned the importance of hard work, responsibility, and serving others with heart.

After graduating from SMA Muhammadiyah Kalabahi, she moved to Makassar to gain work experience — but her heart remained in Alor. Returning home, she joined Nautika with a clear purpose: to help her community grow while doing work that truly matters to her.

Her genuine warmth and hospitality shine in everything she does. Guests often remember her for the way she makes them feel — cared for, seen, and completely at ease. She’s not just good at her job; she’s the reason many guests feel at home.

Outside of work, Rusni finds peace in her garden and joy in spending time with friends. Her love for nature and community runs deep, and her vision for Alor includes better access to healthcare, opportunity, and a life where no one is left behind.

Through her kindness, work ethic, and deep care for others, Rusni reminds us that real hospitality is more than service — it’s how we show up for each other, every day.
