He started his career at Thai Cathode Ray Tube Co., Ltd. in Chonburi Province and at Pongpan Furniture Ltd. Part. as an accountant and began to think about how to develop local businesses or SME’s to make them competitive and able to survive in the market. This interest led him to enroll in the Economic Policy Management Program at Columbia University in New York. He earned his Masters Degree within a year, gaining trainee experience at the New York Branch of Bangkok Bank Co., Ltd.
As Thailand had suffered from the collapse in 1997 known as Tom Yum Kung Crisis, his family business also struggled and asked him to help re-structure the organization, appointing him as a manager. Over the next 10 years working there, he continued to think about the power of knowledge. After revising and balancing the business, he realized his passion for helping businesses and young entrepreneurs and decided to pursue a teaching career. He had learned that business is not only making money but also relating to management, source, plan, money, environment, and above all good governance and moral of business. These aspects of business are key to success and everyday, he gets to help business students become successful.
