Student. Builder. Always learning.
Economics · Business · Ideas
I’m an IB Diploma student at Bangkok Patana School, studying Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation, Economics and Business Management at Higher Level. I’m interested in how businesses grow, how financial markets influence decisions, and how technology can turn ideas into useful products.
During my internship at Bitkub, I explored digital assets, institutional adoption, tokenisation and developments in financial markets. Researching unfamiliar topics and presenting my findings helped me become a more confident analytical thinker and gave me a clearer understanding of the relationship between finance, technology and business strategy.
Alongside my studies, I serve as President of Rescue Glass, working with students and external partners on sustainability initiatives. My responsibilities have included organising meetings, interviewing applicants, assigning roles and exploring opportunities for recycled glass products. I also hold finance and leadership roles in student organisations, including Unbounded, Your Land Your Life and BPS Economist. These experiences are teaching me how to manage responsibilities, coordinate teams and follow through on commitments.
I enjoy exploring entrepreneurship through projects such as Verdō and Nexus Alpha, including ideas for applying AI to financial research. Building these projects has encouraged me to think more carefully about customer needs, product design and the practical challenges of developing a business.
Community service is another important part of my experience. I have volunteered to teach underprivileged children in Thailand, supported elderly people and people with disabilities at the Grand Palace, and participated in tree planting with Credit Suisse.
I’m keen to keep learning through practical experience and connect with people working in business, finance, technology and social enterprise.
