Hello & Xin chào!

I'm a Product Designer with a background in marketing & big data analytics. I transitioned into design because I believe that good experiences need to move beyond data and statistics; they need to be human-centric.

My previous experience in quantitative research helps me find the balance between design thinking and systems thinking. This allows me to bridge the gaps between business and design, making sure each design decision is intentional, delightful, and feasible.

I’m always up for learning new things. My current challenge is coding. I’ve picked up front-end programming and coded this website from scratch in 3 months.


I believe the key to being a good designer is first to be a good person. Kindness matters because design is about people after all. It’s the way you carry yourself, the things you do for the community, and how you treat people you're working with.

Trying to live a life worth remembering

GRADUATION COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER | 2017

When I was young, my family used to live with less than $2 a day. Growing up with adversity has instilled me with grit, humility, and empathy. Before 5000 people, I walked the crowd through the journey of a 7-year old boy and his life in Saigon, Vietnam.
