Through her extensive choral experiences, including conducting Thai Youth Choir (2007-2009) and Chulalongkorn University Concert Choir (2007-present), and many collaborative works of the latter with professional Thai and international orchestras, Pawasut has earned her recognition as Thailand’s leading choral conductor, guest conductor, clinician, adjudicator, and choral educator with national and international engagements including in China, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Srilanka, and USA.  She dedicates much time and energy in bettering choral standards in Thailand through her involvement with Thai governments and international choral organizations, and numerous choral activity initiatives with Chulalongkorn University that include various workshops, choral festivals for secondary school, university, and community choirs, and choral camps for university choirs in Thailand.
