Phong's Interests
|
| General | On occasions I like to do nothing, as silent is golden and I sit back to day dreams. More often, I like to submerge my senses in music, the arts, movies, food and wine tasting, dancing, people watching, working out, martial arts, biking, and Travel! | | Music | All types of sound waves : ) | | Movies | All movies, especially independent films. Once a month, I go on a movie binge. | | Television | Heroes, Smallville, the News, and anything in HD. | | Books | LIVING IN PARADOX is only one of the many perspectives of life's little secrets, based on the experience of a refugee pursuing the American Dream.
Life is only restricted by your imagination. In essence, life is an illusion, a perception of the senses, as they determine the version of your reality at any moment in time.
The chronicles in this book are part biography, part spirituality, with glimpses into the business of entrepreneurship, gambling, sex, love and marriage, and ultimately, self-enlightenment. Whether you are looking for love, happiness, fame, fortune, power, or knowledge, there is no one-size-fits-all magic formula.
In order to find balance within our paradoxical world, your belief system will need to change accordingly. Life is a game, learn the rules, make new rules, enjoy the ride!

About me:
I was born in Saigon, Vietnam and immigrated to the United States as a refugee at the end of the Vietnam War in the spring of 1975. I received a BBA in Business Management and a Master of Science in Science and Technology Commercialization from the University of Texas at Austin. I am multilingual. I worked and traveled extensively throughout Europe, Asia, Latin America, Canada, and the United States.
I was the Director of NTEC (North Texas Enterprise Center for Medical Technology). Prior to joining NTEC I spent 16 years in Start-up Ventures and Management Consulting in the areas of Sales, Marketing, Finance, Information Technology, and Multimedia. I have continued interest in leading-edge technologies including the life sciences sectors of medical devices, biotechnology, and nanotechnology.
I'm now semi-retired and is an advisor to many first time entrepreneurs. In addition, I'm involved with the Center for Space Nuclear Research and various volunteer projects including the Prison Entrepreneurship Program. Furthermore, I'm an author, having published LIVING IN PARADOX, Perspectives of a Refugee Made in America (#1 Local Bestseller, Shakespeare Beethoven & Co., January 2007).
