Biography
I grew up in Thailand with a wide range of interests in arts and science. The Royal Thai Government Scholarship has allowed me to pursue my undergraduate education in the US, where I earned my bachelor's degree at Johns Hopkins University. I fell in love with the interdisciplinary nature of cognitive science, and shared this excitement with others through teaching experiences and involvement with the cognitive science honors society, Omega Psi. I also pursued various subfields of cognitive research—a body of work recognized in the Glushko Award. I am currently pursuing computational cognitive science research in the LEIA Lab at RPI.
Outside of work, I enjoy watercoloring, rock-climbing, and learning languages. I have an N1 certification for Japanese, an A1 for German, and completed intermediate college courses for Spanish.
