He never misses a training session for the two-year-old Boxer, except when he goes out of town. In his mid-30s, Natwut has already reached the top. He currently wears two hats - leader of the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB) and co-host of one of Thailand\u0027s most famous TV talk shows, Joh Jai. \u0022I always wanted to be an engineer. When I was young, I built toy planes. I cut wood, installed engines, filled gas and sent them into the sky. Like many other boys, I pulled apart and re-assembled stuff,\u0022 Natwut recalled. Finally, he became an engineer. In 1993, he graduated from Chulalongkorn University\u0027s Faculty of Engineering. He furthered his studies with a master\u0027s degree in industrial engineering from the Georgia Tech. In 1998, he obtained MBA from MIT Sloan School of Management.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.bangkokpost.com\/180808_Outlook\/18Aug2008_out56.php\u0022\u003Ehttp:\/\/www.bangkokpost.com\/180808_Outlook\/18Aug2008_out56.php\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":"","uid":"27279","created_gmt":"2008-08-18 00:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:06:29","author":"Barbara Christopher","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2008-08-18T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2008-08-18T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1242","name":"School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISYE)"}],"categories":[{"id":"145","name":"Engineering"},{"id":"135","name":"Research"}],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cstrong\u003EBarbara Christopher\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIndustrial and Systems Engineering\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.gatech.edu\/contact\/index.html?id=bt3\u0022\u003EContact Barbara Christopher\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E404.385.3102\u003C\/strong\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["bchristopher@isye.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
