Hi, I'm Bam!

​I'm a Human-Centered Designer, Mechanical Engineer, Entrepreneur, and Math Teacher.

I'm currently a graduate student at MIT in the Integrated Design & Management (IDM) Program, and a graduate fellow at MIT's Morningside Academy of Design.

I believe that everyday interactions subconsciously shape perception and behavior, and that redesigning these experiences for children can create meaningful and long-lasting impact. Aspiring to empower the younger generation to become better global citizens, I am interested in exploring how to foster empathy through the design of products, services, and the built environment.

By leveraging my experiences as a design engineer, entrepreneur, and educator, I want to invent creative solutions to systemic problems at the intersection of the sustainability and education sectors. As a master’s student in MIT’s Integrated Design & Management program, I am exploring ways to utilize human-centered design to create more engaging, effective, and natural learning experiences for children. I also strive to apply my learnings and expertise to provide better opportunities for the younger generation in my home country, Thailand.
