Personal life

Before she started playing volleyball, she was into table tennis. She switched to volleyball following her father's advice that volleyball was more fun and more likely to become popular. Afterwards, a volleyball coach of Bodindecha (Sing Singhaseni) School in Bangkok was so impressed by her playing that he brought her to the school during her high-school level. At first, she did not play as a middle blocker but an outside hitter.{{cite web |url=http://shows.voicetv.co.th/voice-of-the-day/9254.html |title=ปลื้มจิตร์ ถินขาว สุดยอดนักกีฬา วอลเลย์บอล ทีมชาติไทย - Voice TV |website=shows.voicetv.co.th |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110504133307/http://shows.voicetv.co.th/voice-of-the-day/9254.html |archive-date=2011-05-04}}
