I started swimming at the age of 8 and won a gold medal at the South East Asian Games in the 200 meter breaststroke at the age of 12, making me the youngest athlete in Thailand to achieve the highest level in the history of these games.
I graduated with Bachelor and Master Degrees in Business Administration, and initially worked in the airline industry. I later moved to the US and was certified as a level 2 ASCA coach (American Swimming Coaches Association). I coached swimming teams in Las Vegas, Nevada and Bellingham, Washington before returning to Thailand in the autumn of 2009 to take up a coaching position at ISB. I decided to move to St Andrews International School Bangkok in 2015. Being a team member of STA teachers, I feel like I am part of a big family and share in the responsibility of taking care of all our children like they are my own.
