Profile

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Agricultural Economics at Purdue University and a research assistant at GTAP, specializing in international trade policies, CGE modeling, and data-driven economic analysis. With a strong foundation in trade policy, economic modeling, and data science, I bridge research with real-world applications.

Beyond academia, I am an entrepreneur and business strategist. As the Co-founder, CFO, and Head of Data Analytics at AMATA Production Co., Ltd., I have built and scaled a business from the ground up, integrating economic and business expertise with data-driven decision-making. Previously, I worked as a Business Data Analyst at Unilever Thailand, specializing in market analytics and forecasting to optimize business strategies.

With over six years of combined experience in research, business, and corporate analytics, I bring a unique ability to analyze complex datasets, develop strategic solutions, and drive impactful results. My technical expertise includes developing R packages, Python applications, and building business databases via JavaScript (Google Apps). I have contributed to official R packages on CRAN and built analytical tools to support trade policy and business decision-making. Explore my programming projects at my portfolio.

A recipient of the prestigious Anandamahidol Foundation scholarship, awarded by the Thai Royal Family for Master to Ph.D. studies in the U.S., I am committed to applying economic insights, data analytics, and strategic problem-solving to research and business solutions.

I am actively seeking opportunities in data analytics, economic consulting, and trade policy research, where I can leverage my diverse expertise to solve complex problems and drive data-driven decision-making.
