MUIC Outstanding Alumni Awards 2024

Mahidol University International College (MUIC) is proud to recognize the exceptional achievements and contributions of our distinguished alumni through the Outstanding Alumni Awards 2024. We extend our warmest congratulations to the following individuals for their remarkable impact in their respective fields:

现代商业创业项目主任(国际项目),正大管理学院;都喜公主帕塔龙酒店业主

2016年我获得国际商务工商管理学士学位毕业时,完全不知道未来会怎样。我父亲总是告诉我:"在成为某人之前,先学会做一个普通人。"我遵循他的智慧,开始了酒店行业的冒险,希望有一天能拥有自己的酒店。

我知道新冠疫情将改变旅游业,我预见到二线城市的崛起。旅行者将不再局限于大都市区。我相信那些率先进入这些新兴目的地的人将抓住重要机遇。在疫情期间,我专心学习并联系了都喜国际。从那封探索性的邮件开始,我走遍了泰国,获得了贷款,最终实现了我的梦想。在家人的坚定支持下,都喜公主帕塔龙酒店诞生了。

这很有挑战性,我曾想为什么没有人教我这些重要的商业知识。我意识到与他人分享这些见解是多么有价值。从客座讲师开始,我发现教学不仅仅是讲授课程;它是培养批判性思维、成长心态和积极态度,使年轻学生能够充分发挥潜力。从那一刻起,我的生活改变了。今天,作为项目主任,我作为酒店业主和讲师的角色无缝融合。我在为学生融合理论与实践知识中找到了巨大的快乐和满足感。

您的人生座右铭或指导原则是什么?
持续前进比快速前进更重要。成就就像马拉松,需要力量、纪律和坚持。

您如何描述MUIC?MUIC的经历是否为您的职业生涯做好了准备?
总是充满机会:拓展我舒适区的机会,增强我能力的机会,以及教会我只要相信一切皆有可能的机会。

Enaptar国家总监;ReCharge Energy创始人

我于2014年从MUIC获得环境科学理学学士学位。之后在瑞典斯德哥尔摩和荷兰埃因霍温攻读可持续能源工程硕士学位。

2019年,我创立了ReCharge Energy社会企业项目。ReCharge Energy是一家通过结合尖端离网解决方案和独特社会实施方法来解决农村电气化挑战的实践型公司。阁吉岛微电网、布隆敦岛、布隆勒岛和阁麦诺太阳能家庭系统作为下一代社会商业模式的独特概念验证模型。ReCharge的方法是通过打造满足社区特定需求的定制能源解决方案来创建发展中心,同时赋予他们项目所有权。

除了社会影响项目,我还担任Enaptar的国家总监,专注于下一代氢能技术。Enaptar是创新阴离子交换膜(AEM)电解槽的技术领导者,对可持续绿色氢生产至关重要。我在Enaptar的职责是监督东南亚的活动,包括关键的氢能展示项目,如清迈的Phi Suea House项目,这是世界上第一座氢能住宅建筑。

Country Director of Dignity in Work for All

I graduated from MUIC in 2013 with a BA in Social Science degree (1st Class Honors) and now hold a Master of Public Policy degree from the Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxford.

I am currently Thailand's Country Director of Dignity in Work for All, a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote dignified work in extended global supply chains. Over the 10 years I have worked in the field of business and human rights, I have conducted research and special investigations focusing on illuminating trafficking-related risks in cross-border labor recruitment, the precarity of work and human rights challenges faced by workers in various industries and commodities, and collaborated with businesses and governments on how to make work more legal, ethical, and fair.

I am motivated by the belief that the people who produce the goods and services we enjoy in modern life deserve dignified work. The modern capitalist economy can be extractive. Our collective effort should be to establish better rules of business practice and improve access to rights, ensuring workers are not marginalized.

It has been personally meaningful to participate in numerous multi-stakeholder initiatives aimed at establishing better industry standards on social responsibility, assisting companies in diagnosing areas for improvement in their performance, and promoting business accountability through remediation programs such as worker repayments to address debt bondage.

As Country Director, I aim to cultivate a talent pool of business and human rights professionals who can contribute to and continue this crucial work.

Prior to this role, I worked on innovative financing for women's education through Wedu Foundation, spearheaded a national youth campaign on the Sustainable Development Goals with the UN Resident Coordinator in Thailand, and contributed to humanitarian assistance in Myanmar with Metta Foundation.

Motto or quote or guiding principle in your life?
Be in the arena, and be kind to yourself.

How would you describe MUIC? Did your experience in MUIC prepare you for a career?
My experience at MUIC was formative and meaningful in shaping my thinking, developing skills, and kindling friendships for which I am very grateful.

Project Assistant in Public Policy and Government Affairs at Vero Advocacy

Ms. Thanyavee graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree major in Intercultural Studies and Languages in 2022 (2nd Class Honors). With a foundation in Ethics, Philosophy, and Economics from Mahidol University International College, her interdisciplinary approach bridges theoretical frameworks with practical solutions for pressing global and local socioeconomic challenges.

A research paper she co-authored with her thesis supervisor, Asst. Prof. Dr. Matthew Ferguson, and which was published in Popular Music and Society, demonstrates how rural Thai communities transform global cultural influences into economically viable local content. This reveals the intricate relationship between cultural capital and development in emerging economies.

This analytical perspective has enabled her to create tangible community impact. During her tenure at Scholars of Sustenance Foundation, she secured a record-breaking grant of over 9 million Baht to provide nutritional support to 2,400 marginalized preschoolers. This addressed critical food security challenges within Thailand's education sector while establishing new operational benchmarks for the organization's sustainability initiatives.

Currently at Vero Advocacy, she examines the gap between policy promises and their business impact, specializing in stakeholder mapping and regulatory analysis across various sectors, including renewable energy and sustainable agriculture. Her professional journey reflects a steadfast commitment to integrating socio-ecological principles with economic growth strategies.

This interdisciplinary background has equipped her with the frameworks necessary to create meaningful policy solutions that balance economic competitiveness with environmental imperatives. By translating complex data analytics into accessible policy recommendations, she continues to work toward Thailand's sustainable future, applying both analytical rigor and human experience.

Motto or quote or guiding principle in your life?
Where logic meets humanity, we find solutions that truly matter.

How would you describe MUIC? Did your experience in MUIC prepare you for a career?
A door to a considerable journey stands before you.

Owner and Founder at Interpreter Mastermind, Professional Translator, Coach, Emcee

Graduating with a Bachelor's degree in Tourism and Hospitality Management (1st Class Honors) in 2015, I pursued further studies in China. My diverse educational journey, spanning five countries—Thailand, the United States, mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan—and fueled by scholarships in four of them, has cultivated a strong growth mindset and a commitment to global impact. This experience has fostered a passion for empowering others and creating positive international impact. I have realized this through my extensive career in the event industry, providing interpretation and hosting over 1,800 events both domestically and internationally. Complementing this, I have 15 years of teaching experience in public speaking, pitching, interpretation training, languages, and personal development, where I am committed to sharing my knowledge and fostering the growth of individuals.

Motto or quote or guiding principle in your life?
Everything starts from the way you think. Learn more so you can think better.

How would you describe MUIC? Did your experience in MUIC prepare you for a career?
MUIC fosters a dynamic environment where students discover their passions, explore diverse academic disciplines, and define their unique contributions to the world.
