With a strong foundation in accounting, Dian also serves as an adjunct instructor, bringing over four years of teaching experience in tax and accounting. In the classroom, he is dedicated to helping students develop practical skills in tax compliance, financial reporting, and ethical standards. His duties include curriculum development, delivering lectures, assessing student performance, and integrating real-world case studies to enhance learning outcomes.

Dian holds a Doctorate in Business Administration (DBA), which has equipped him with advanced knowledge in strategic management, organizational behavior, and applied research methodologies.
