Bio
"A painter who struggles to see how my enjoyment in STEM and social studies can fit together into a coherent interest, I find myself trying out everything throughout high school to search for that single path to continue on. For better or worse, I have not yet found an area of study I want to give up yet.
I got into both art, architecture and engineering schools, but decided to attend liberal arts college for this very reason. However, the journey here has equipped me with a mission to come back and make Thailand a better, more sustainable country. By pursuing an interdisciplinary field of study, I hope to be able to better understand the multi-faceted problems that Thailand is handling in the future"
