About Me

The road to becoming an executive functioning coach has been a complex meandering one. My own disorienting experiences of navigating my 20’s as a queer, anxious, first generation, Vietnamese American has allowed me to empathize with a lot of you out there - we are very familiar with the confusion, frustration, self-doubt, struggle for belonging, and isolation that comes with being unique. As lifelong out-of-the-boxers, we collectively understand the importance of self-compassion, courage, resourcefulness, community, and persistence.

Why I Coach:

Life's pretty weird, but it doesn't have to be difficult. I have a strong urge to be the guide for others that I needed when I was frantically improvising my way through the pressures of adulting, school, and work. Giving myself the permission to embrace the process and freestyle life has led me to meet people from all over the world and learn their stories in various capacities - late-night barista, study abroad student, teaching assistant, college major advisor, active volunteer throughout my community, and clinical learning specialist working with neurodivergent students. Through all of this (ongoing) experimentation I find myself consistently gravitating toward mentoring young adults from all walks of life who are just starting to truly grapple with how powerful it is to possess unique perspectives and gifts.

What I’ve learned about embracing my own unique path so far has been so profound that I've remained inspired to make my life my message, to continue to repurpose what I’m learning about the beauty of diversity into fuel for helping others trailblaze their own pathways of meaningful education, work, and life.

Outside of work, I enjoy playing in the kitchen, reading, making groovy playlists on Spotify, and taking moments to appreciate the food growing on my balcony every morning.
