About
I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a Bachelor of Commerce (Hons.) in Finance. Currently, I’m pursuing a career in Marketing with a focus on Marketing Technology (specializing in Automation and Operations) and Analytics. Prior to pursuing Marketing, I had previous work experiences in Capital Markets, Corporate Development & Strategy and Digital Product Management (I wrote about my experience switching career paths in my final years of university here).
My diverse background in Marketing, Digital Product Management & Finance helped me defined an interest in influencing decision-making with meaningful engagement, analytical insights and data story-telling. I’m also a big believer in audience-centricity, and uphold this belief by constantly exploring new ideas to engage and inspire audiences.
I was born and raised in the coastal city of Haiphong, Vietnam, and came to Canada to pursue education in 2013 at the age of 15. I’m passionate about people, languages and cultures: Besides being fluent in Vietnamese - my native language, I was enrolled in an intensive French immersion program, and first learned English when I was in Grade 6. I’m an art enthusiast and a pianist at heart, having practiced and performed piano for over 20 years. In my free time, I love reading, cooking, streaming sitcoms and cartoons, singing, staying active with HIIT workouts, and socializing with people over good foods, good drinks and a lot of great chats. My Myers-Briggs type indicator is ENFP-T: A spontaneous, feeling-driven, people-centered and somewhat turbulent extrovert, which explained my upbeating and happy personalities.
