A Thai woman with pink lipstick and a pink blazer.

My name is Kanlaya Poonsri. Pla is my nickname. I’m from Thailand. I’ve been living in Oakland for 3 years and have also worked at Crocker the whole time. I actually work three different part time jobs and love them all. I like working with the kids and love the school; it is my family! I also love hiking, cooking and sharing my culture. I always miss Thailand, but I’m happy living here with my family.
