What I'm looking for

I am seeking senior roles in business development or investment where I can lead cross-border deals, grow assets under management, and build strategic partnerships in Southeast Asia.

I am an ambitious, responsible business development and investment professional with international experience across Southeast Asia, Dubai and regional markets. I have led high-value transactions, advised on foreign investment into infrastructure and real estate, co‑founded a private equity fund (USD 5M AUM), and co‑manage trading strategies in crypto and gold.

My background combines leadership, strategic planning, government relations and client cultivation with experience in legal and compliance functions at multinational firms. I am bilingual in English and Vietnamese, with conversational Chinese and German, and I bring a track record of closing bespoke high-ticket deals and building cross-border partnerships.
