Description:

I am excited to serve as the UK ambassador for Docmentor, personally aiming to support Thai students aspiring to study medicine in the UK. Having experienced this journey myself, I understand the unique challenges and opportunities involved in pursuing a medical degree abroad. My academic background at the University of Edinburgh, combined with my leadership roles in various medical societies, has instilled in me a deep appreciation for the value of cross-cultural collaboration.

Through Docmentor, I aim to create a supportive network for Thai students by providing mentorship, sharing resources, and offering guidance throughout the application process. I believe that fostering connections between UK and Thai medical students is crucial for building a vibrant community dedicated to advancing healthcare.

Additionally, I am committed to promoting collaborative research initiatives that bring together the strengths of both countries. By facilitating partnerships and encouraging knowledge exchange, we can enhance our contributions to the global medical field. Together, we can inspire and empower the next generation of healthcare professionals, making a meaningful impact on both local and international stages.
