About me

I didn’t come to this market —
I grew up inside it

My family has been connected to Phuket since 2012, and VillaCarte Group is our family business: development, an agency, hotels and service. I’ve lived on the island since 2022, building my part of it.

For you it means one simple thing: I back my recommendations not with an “internet agent’s” reputation, but with the family name on the sign.

The path

How I got to where I am

2012

My father moves to Phuket. From that year the island is not a resort to me but a second home: I visit regularly and watch it change.

until 2022

My own path in business: a digital agency since my youth, own projects. Learning to count money and answer for results.

2022

I move to Phuket for good. I decide to grow within the family business — VillaCarte Group development — and start from the most honest place: the field.

2022–2024

I work as an independent agent through the VillaCarte partner programme: 11 closed deals, properties across the island. I learn the market the way agents know it, not developer staff.

2024

I launch the first cohort of villacarte.academy — a programme where we grew real estate agents for the Phuket market. The project is on pause today, but it’s a chapter that taught me a lot. villacarte.academy →

now

I work in the group’s sales department and learn development from the inside — from land and construction to rental management. In parallel I run The Dream View, an FF&E company that furnished Layan Green Park.

I don’t sell square metres.I answer for what happens to themin a year, three, and ten.

In focus now

Three roles, one goal

VillaCarte Group sales

I run Layan Verde and Layan Green Park deals from the group’s sales department: availability, resales and terms — first-hand.

Partner network

I work with agents and brokers on the group’s projects: terms, materials, deal support. I walked the agent’s path myself — I know what a partner actually needs.

The Dream View

My FF&E company: we furnished Layan Green Park. I know what a unit is made of — down to the last chair.

Project launches, investor events, island life — all part of a job I love.

Shall we talk about your goal?
