Biography

Hello! I am a PhD Candidate in Computer Science at University of Massachusetts Amherst working with my advisor, Prof. Prashant Shenoy, in the Laboratory for Advance Software System (LASS). My research interests include smart grid, smart building, and renewable energy with emphasis on sustainability (e.g. mitigating greenhouse gas emission) and a bit on privacy and fairness. I expect to defend my thesis and finish my PhD in 2024.

Prior coming to UMass, I joined a startup company called Piggipo. We developed a mobile app that help Thai people manage and reduce their credit card debt. We won DTAC Accelerate Program in 2014 and got funded by 500 Startups Thailand. It was an amazing time in my life! I got a chance to meet many nice and brilliant people around the world, which, in the end, led me to my journey to the U.S.

Last year, I had a chance to teach First Year Seminar (main instructor) and Computer Networks (co-instruct with Prof. Jim Kurose) courses at UMass Amherst (more details in my Teaching Experiences section below). I enjoyed it a lot and decided that I want to pursue a job in academic with a focus on teaching. Currently, I am on a job market! Please email me for more info.
