"Seeing infants arrive with late-stage conditions that could have been caught earlier pushed me to start building digital health tools. I applied to Karolinska Institutet to learn how to turn everyday clinical frustrations into practical digital solutions."

How do you hope to make a difference through your education?

"I want to bring smart, accessible technology back to regional hospitals in Thailand. My goal is to develop low-cost AI tools that can support frontline staff, help save lives and reduce the healthcare gap."

What has your experience taught you about healthcare innovation?

"Working in resource-limited hospitals taught me that the best medical innovations aren't always the most expensive ones – they are the ones that actually reach the people who need them most."
