The latest SPU Voices podcast features Tod Yansomboon, an international student from Thailand currently in his final quarter at SPU. Tod left his home at the age of 15 to attend high school in the U.S. in pursuit of his overarching goal: to understand business and how business can help others. After three years of high school in three different U.S. states, Tod arrived on the SPU campus to study business administration and found his dreams all coming true — until COVID hit. Forced to return home without much hope of returning, Tod turned to social media for community and support. He is now a true social media influencer with over one million subscribers, and his videos have been being viewed over 200 million times.
