One of my most defining interests is to travel and explore different cultures. My junior high streak of math competitions has taken me to Thailand, Japan, and South Korea, while digitally, on a daily basis for more than a decade, I have engaged with an intercontinental demographic by avidly surfing the constantly updating waters of YouTube, Reddit, and Twitter on a myriad of topics, including philosophy, psychology, and money matters (especially pertaining to the American Dream). Contemplating the tremendous scope of foreign cultures, though, has also fostered in me a yearning to preserve pieces of my own, especially music through flutes. My two main instruments are the Gourd Flute and the Double Cat Flute, each having eccentric designs and bombastic sounds that nicely fit with my equally eardrum-enticing speaking voice. Perhaps the interest I’m most determined on digging deeper into, however, is the realm of investing and trading. I aspire to be a major player in Vietnam’s booming financial scene, particularly its ever-more volatile stock market, to eventually make it more stable, analyzable, and welcoming to beginners so that everyone in Vietnam could get the chance to invest.
