Early life and education

Amanda was born on 17 June 1993 in Phuket to a Dutch Canadian father and a Thai Chinese mother.[10] She studied in the English language program at Satree Phuket School and the British International School, Phuket. After graduating, she moved to Toronto to enroll in the University of Toronto Mississauga, graduating with a degree in Economics, Business administration and management general in 2015, with first-class honours.[10]

Pageantry

Amanda began her career in pageantry in 2015, competing in Miss Thailand World 2015, where she placed in the top ten. Afterwards, she competed in Miss Grand Phuket 2016, which she won, and was granted entry into Miss Grand Thailand 2016 as the representative from Phuket Province.[11][12] She went on to place in the top ten, additionally winning the supplementary title of Miss Rising Star.[13] After Miss Grand Thailand, Amanda was selected to represent Thailand at Miss Tourism Metropolitan International 2016 in Cambodia, where she won the title.[14][15][16]

In 2020, Amanda was selected as a contestant in Miss Universe Thailand 2020, as one of the contestants coming from Phuket Province. She emerged as a favorite to win the title, winning the pre-pageant title of Miss Prissana, in addition to being one of the five golden tiara recipients and winning the speech wildcard into the top twenty. The finals were held on 10 October 2020 in Bangkok, where Amanda continued to advance through the rounds of competition until winning the title, being crowned by outgoing titleholder Paweensuda Drouin. Amanda was the second consecutive Thai-Canadian to win the title, following her predecessor Paweensuda. Amanda represented Thailand at Miss Universe 2020.[7][17][18][19]

Amanda represented Thailand at the 69th Miss Universe competition on May 16, 2021 at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Hollywood, Florida, United States and finished in the Top 10.
