Founder, Melt District And Nosh Nosh Project

Industry :

Advocacy

Social :

Her previous life as an event organiser made her realise that she created so much waste, so she closed her company and started new projects that would be more meaningful for society and future generations. Melt District is a plastic recycling studio, and Nosh Nosh Project is a food and culture curating enlargement project, and the Hill Tribe Education Foundation raises funds to encourage hill tribe kids to study in university. Some of her challenges included convincing farmers to trust in her Nosh Nosh Project, and the limited information on plastic recycling. She had to research and experiment, but after eight months, she was able to produce the desired melt sheet. Now she hopes to bring the prices down to make recycling solutions more affordable to a wider group. She is proud, in recent times, of having reduced at least 100 kg of plastic waste everyday, turning it into new material, and of having built four water retention ponds for Hin Lad Nai village in Chiang Rai,which were funded by the educative dining experiences she hosted. When she’s not working on her projects, she is probably out running marathons or watching Wes Anderson films.
