Hey, this is me, James. I was born in June 1982 in Bangkok, Thailand. I studied at Virginia Tech , graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Business, and currently studying Master of Business Administration at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign .
I was a principal curator and organizer of the first TEDx event in Thailand, TEDxBKK , in 2010, and a principal organizer until 2014. I collaborated with the United States Department of State's TechCamp Thailand 2012 as Co-Facilitator and served on the Organizing Committee of every Barcamp Bangkok until 2018. During these times, I co-founded and ran a small software company ( Ready Office , a tailor-made CRM software house, and Nettree Data Center ) while actively engaged in the local startup community.
My time in politics includes serving as an assistant to Member of the House of Representatives Anik Amranand between 2011-2013; she was a Deputy Chairperson of the Energy Committee during that period.
