Davy Gouriou (Davy) earned a B.A. in Business (Chinese) from Mae Fah Luang University. He has been a close friend of Nuan since their university years, and it was through her that he first learned about the challenges faced by ethnic minority, stateless, nationality-less, and migrant students.

Over time, Davy witnessed how a nonprofit organization like Kwah Dao was able to support many disadvantaged students—including Nuan herself—in accessing and completing higher education. He came to understand just how difficult it is for these students to pursue university studies without support. Many of them, despite having a strong desire to continue their education, are forced to begin working immediately after high school due to financial hardship. Unlike Thai students, they are often ineligible for government scholarships or student loan programs.

Recognizing the crucial role that nonprofit organizations play in bridging this gap, Davy joined Kwah Dao in 2022 with the hope of contributing to its mission of expanding educational opportunities for underserved students.
