About Me
Hello! I’m Ing, a 17-year-old sustainability and equitable mobility advocate. I'm also a yogurt lover, history buff, and musician!
Here’s a peek into the passions, ideas, and projects that make up my world — hope you enjoy the ride! :)
TerraDrop @ KMITL University
I developed controlled-release fertilizer using biodegradable hydrogel with Dr. Ittipol Jangchud at KMITL to help crops survive droughts. By optimizing materials like alginate, biochar, and fertilizer, I created beads now being tested on real farms.
Then, I published a paper on my hydrogel and presented it at the 2025 International Conference of Polymer Chemistry, where I won the Best Presentation Award. As well as participating in The 51th International Conference on Science, Technology, and Technology-based Innovation at Chulalongkorn University.
YOBIO Greek Yogurt
Founded Yobio, a Greek-yogurt startup blending Thai flavors with inulin for better nutrition. Developed three flavors with great feedback, sold at local markets, filed a petty patent, and started building a scalable franchise model.
GoBabyGo Modified Walker
Designed a low-cost pediatric walker with a custom guiding mechanism to help children build strength for independent mobility. Built, tested, and donated five units to kids in rehabilitation programs.
GoBabyGo Club @ RIS
As President of GoBabyGo Thailand, I lead a student team modifying ride-on cars for children with mobility challenges. I organized builds, fundraising, and partnerships, delivering custom cars nationwide to support mobility and confidence.
EducatoryX Service Trip @ Chiang Rai
Visited Chiang Rai with EducatoryX to teach basic English to refugee students and supported activities at the Keep Girls Safe shelter. Helped lead games, lessons, and team-building activities—an experience that was meaningful and lasting.
RIS Student Council
Served as Grade Representative, leading activities and coordinating sports events. Helped raise our Knowledge Bowl team from last to first, and supported logistics for competitions and school band events.
History and Academic Bowl
Competed in Varsity History and Academic Bowl, winning multiple regional and national tournaments. Reached History Bowl quarterfinals twice at the International Academic Competitions' Asian Championships, and placed top 3 in Geography Bee and top 5 in History Bee.
Overdrive - Guitar
Guitarist for Overdrive, a student rock band performing at school events and charity shows. Performed at Siam Paragon with the Thai Red Cross. Our cover was recognized by Whirr, a shoegaze band. We’ve also begun writing original songs together!
