Thitaya was 11 years old when she inherited her 2 year old nephew – due to the death of his parents in an accident. To support the family Thitaya’s mother had to work many miles away, leaving Thitaya responsible for the total care of her nephew. She washed her school uniform daily, care for the nephew, ironed her uniform early every morning and took him to daycare, then walked to school. All through her schooling she maintained a 3.4+ GPA. Upon high school graduation, she received a scholarship from Sustainable Hope International.

This May she received her A.A. in accounting with a 3.25 GPA. She applied for and received two more years of scholarship. She is currently finishing her junior year in accounting from a prestigious university in Chiang Mai, Thailand. She will graduate with a Bachelors in accounting in the spring of 2016.
