Prior to starting my PhD, I completed a BA in Government from the Political Science faculty at Chulalongkorn University (Thailand) and then went on to study for an MSc in Public Policy from the University of Bristol. I previously worked as a Policy Analysis Officer for the Department of Disease Control, Ministry of Public Health Thailand. Today I serve as a lecturer in health and social care policy at Naresuan University, Thailand. My main research interest is in the area of policy relating to border health security, health equity and migrant health within ASEAN context.
