My Story

In a traditional family of four, I was raised in Vietnam for almost my entire life. My father is a doctor and my mother is an accountant. I really appreciate their occupations and their efforts to raise me, but they don't inspire me to be a doctor nor an accountant. My true interest lies in music.

Singing

I sing wherever I can: at school, in the shower, in my free time. I listen to music and sing along to them. I didn't have many opportunities in learning how to sing, so I have been practicing all by myself. I still see myself as an amateur and wish to improve on my singing more professionally.

Writing

I enjoy learning about languages. I have learnt English since I was 10 years old, which was 9 years ago. I do not see myself as a linguist of any sort, but rather a student with an interest in creating a short poem or a piece of adventure for myself to speak out for me at a certain point of time.

Song Writing

I wrote this song in a random occasion. I wrote it entirely on a very basic chord combination tutorial online and made up the notes just based on my sense of music.
