Tech, health, entrepreneurship. My heart beats fast.
I pursue Computer Science in college–an exciting, fast-growing field where everything seems able to align with the extent of human creativity. I've constantly been teaching myself useful programming languages and platforms not covered in school, and hacking stuff along the way. I'm most interested in web and mobile technologies, and so far have been involved with front-end web programming. I've also dabbled in Arduino snippets to make a robot run and light up. This month, I'm starting with Android development! I'm also an aspiring entrepreneur and keep up with the latest news of the tech business world. Constantly observing people's needs and sketching out innovative ideas have become my habits.
Languages. Traveling. Cuisines. Stuff on the side.
Learning new languages is one of my greatest joys, and one I would consider a hobby. So far, I have dabbled in Korean, French and Chinese besides attaining fluency in English and Vietnamese. I am determined to master one more language in the near future.
Languages instill in me curiosity about other cultures. I enjoy traveling to new places whenever I have a chance (and budget) to do so. My list now has included many places in Vietnam and the US, the UK, Thailand, Myanmar, Singapore, Hong Kong, South Korea and hopefully many more to come!
I'm also a huge foodie and love trying out different types of food. My favorite so far... Off the top of my head let's say Vietnamese bún riêu, Korean Andong jjimdak and Shake Shack burger?
Optimist. Dreamer. Achiever. Who I am and more.
When life gives you lemon, make lemondade. I'm a strong believer in how much our attitudes account for success, and I've always been an optimist even in the most stressful times. My attitude allows me to dream big and strives hard for it: to travel the world, and to have a tech start-up of my own in the future that will help millions of people and more. Amazing people of the technology industry, including entrepreneurs, innovators and inspirers, have been fueling my motivation every single day–among them Steve Jobs, Peter Thiel, and Elon Musk. With clear goals in mind, yet realistic expectations for unexpected events to come, I'm striving to become a better person bit by bit every day, and on my path to reach closer and closer to my dreams.
