About Me
I was born and raised in Ho Chi Minh City, the busiest city of Viet Nam. Therefore, transferring to the peaceful Lincoln, NE was quite a change that I've loved since. Right after coming to the US, I started an M.B.A program at UNL. I then worked at the NE Department of Labor and the Department of Health and Human Services before coming to the Department of Animal Science. It has been intriguing to come back to UNL in a different role.
