"If you really want to elevate Vietnam Advertising, go learn from the world’s best out there, then come back!"
That’s why when I got the chance to study abroad in the US, I immediately jumped at it with both my Visa and my C.Visa.

Hi! My name is Kien Nguyen, a copywriter made in Vietnam, raised on “pho”, and kept clean with bidets. After graduating from Miami University and American Advertising, I've returned to Asia to catch the next Creative Wave at Ogilvy Singapore, and to add many other Mile-stamps to my C.Visa!
