Impact lives
My perspective is shaped by my family’s journey as immigrants from the Vietnam War. I'm passionate about work that empowers newcomers and trailblazers to pursue their dreams on their own terms.

Iterate and collaborate often
I started my career apprenticing in architectural design, where I learned to balance form and function within tight budgets and constraints. I was drawn to technology, where I found the speed, scale of impact and collaborative iteration cycles to energize my craft.

Innovate at intersections
I honed my design craft at Stanford’s Hasso Plattner Institute of Design, working with David Kelley (Founder of IDEO) to shape a new degree blending technology, interaction design, and game development. Design thinking and innovation at new intersections became a core part of my approach and continue to shape my work today.
