About
Hey there, thanks for stopping by. Please don’t view this page as my resume for work. It’s not. It’s about me as a human being. Check my LinkedIn for my work profile.
- Grew up in Vietnam, and calling the Bay Area my second home now 🏡.
Current hobbies:
- Enjoy going outdoors (snowboarding / camping / concerts).
- Pour-over coffee connoisseur.
- Explore new cultures, new places and new perspectives. I enjoy solo backpacking, and spontaneous getaways.
- Learn new languages (Spanish for now).
Things I found that make myself happy, excited and content
- Quality time with my loved ones
- Intriguingly new ideas / concepts.
- Exercise daily and eat healthy (low sat fat / high fiber diet)
- Real human interactions.
- Music + moving my body. Current favorite artists are Ben Böhmer and Lost Frequencies.
Things I found that make myself feel miserable
- Too focused on monetary net worth. I both believe personal finance and happiness have diminishing returns.
- Too focused on world news, politics or things outside of my control. The world has always been chaotic and bad, yet we humans somehow still figure out how to live and thrive.
- Conform to social norms and expectations that don’t fit my personality, and keeping up with the Joneses.
Things I want to do in the future
- Create X that brings massive value to the community, and people around me. X could be anything. Joining a positive-impact startup, or simply a business.
- Ability to effectively control my attention and intention. (Social media / doomscrolling is the new cigarette)
Cheers Dat ☺️
