I build software
that ships..
I'm a software engineer who graduated from Vietnam, crossed the Pacific, and landed on the coast of New South Wales.
By day I build at enterprise scale — systems that handle real traffic, real users, real consequences. By night I research how large language models handle Vietnamese, a language most AI gets badly wrong. Both worlds inform each other.
Currently pursuing an MPhil at the University of Wollongong while working full-time. I have an obsession with craft at every layer of the stack — from architecture decisions down to the pixel.
"The best code is the one that ships and the user never has to think about."

Researching how large language models handle low-resource languages — specifically Vietnamese, where training data is scarce and cultural nuance matters.

How I build.
I reach for the right tool, not the popular one. TypeScript for correctness. Python for research. Postgres when structure matters, Redis when speed does. Docker always.
