	THIS IS ME PAKAWAT NAKWIJIT Hi, my name is ภควัต นาควิจิตร; Pakawat Nakwijit (please call me TK). I'm a PhD researcher under the supervision of Prof. Matthew Purver at Queen Mary University of London. My main research interests lie in Computational Linguistics, particularly its applications in the Thai language 🇹🇭. Specifically, my current research focuses on the semantics of spelling variation in Thai. For example, considering มาก and มว๊าก—while both mean "a lot", the latter seems to be "a lot more" than the former one. Similarly, มึง and เมิง both literally serve as second-person pronouns, but the latter carries a relatively less aggressive tone. Moreover, I'm also interested in Mathematics, and Philosophy in general. Professionally, I also work as a full-stack web developer and, more recently, as a project manager (?). I specialise in various frontend and backend libraries, including Vuejs, Inertiajs, Bootstrap, Tailwind, Laravel, MongoDB, MySQL, and ElasticSearch. Currently, I am leading a team in developing AI solutions for a security platform at [SecurityPitch. In parallel, I also work as a chatbot developer for Proclinic.
