Champ is a writer from southern Thailand, who was once ordained as a Theravada Buddhist monk and now (unrelatedly) practices Shaolin Kungfu. He studied BA Psychology with Philosophy at University of Oxford to learn the secrets of mind control. He attended Tin House Workshop 2025, Clarion West Workshop 2024 and Faber Academy 2023, and somewhere along the journey, he had an epiphany that he would punch for the trees.
