With a decade of experience in Fine Dining management and a background as a startup CEO, I lead the creative direction and hosting of many activities at Chan Dat. Drawing from my expertise as a sensory specialist (Top 4 Vietnam Sommelier in French Wine 2016), I integrate Eastern Philosophy and Tu Vi Cosmology as a methodology for observing life and human nature.
As a Host, I combine analytical systems thinking with sharp intuition to transform specialized knowledge into immersive experiences, allowing participants to connect with wisdom in a practical and meaningful way.
Partnering in the execution of these visions is Nicole, who manages the operational structure and systems at Chân Đất. With a professional background in corporate restructuring and financial management, I establish logical and scientific frameworks for every workshop and event. My 15-year practice of Vipassana meditation, paired with an appreciation for indigenous folk arts, ensures meticulous attention to detail in operations and logistics.
I provide the solid administrative foundation that allows Chan Dat’s philosophical and artistic concepts to be realized professionally.
