Index

A brief introduction.

I study how messy, real-world data turns into decisions — and I build the pipelines, models and small tools that make that crossing reliable.

Originally from Myanmar, now in Thailand, I've followed a slightly unusual academic route — four institutions across three countries, in parallel — and a working life built around forecasting markets and shipping production systems remotely.

At Gold Silver Central I led the AI team designing ARIMA-based forecasting for gold markets, building end-to-end pipelines on Azure and trimming a third of our recurring manual work via APIs and automated reports.

Outside paid work, I teach data science to people just getting started — which is, honestly, where most of the learning happens.
