She was born in Burma and moved to Thailand with her family at the age of two. She grew up in the Bawnaw Refuggee Camp and at the age of 18 moved to the Mae Lah Refuggee Camp.
At 20 she finished her Thai Standard School studies in Mae Lah and then worked as an English/Karen Language Teacher teaching nursery age students for 4 years inside the camp. Then she managed to get the necessary traveling documents to take up a job in Bangkok where she took up several teaching jobs at various schools and worked as a nanny during this time as well. This was over the course of about seven years. She then met and fell in love with a Thai man in Bangkok and got married. Shortly after her and her husband married they moved to Malaysia where she worked again as a nanny for about a year. She then decided she would like to return to Mae Lah Camp and worked as a Karen/Thai/English/Burmese interpreter inside the camp for about two years. Her and her husband then decided to move to her husband’s home town which is a little village just outside the town of Metawa. This is where they are at today.
