D-E ’08

Athisin “Ohm” Poolsawaddi sent in this update. “Since Dwight, I went to get my economics degree from NYU (Class of 2012), worked at Citigroup then get my MBA from Columbia Business School (Class of 2017). After Columbia, I wanted to get into healthcare/medical tourism. I found an addiction and mental health rehab called The Dawn in 2017. It is the only private mental health rehab in Asia treating patients with depression, anxiety, addiction, and other mental health issues. We are now internationally recognized from London to Sydney. We have an international team of psychologists and therapists serving local and international clients. From senior level executives in leading companies to teenagers have come through our door for help.”
