My TED journey started in 2016 when I came across a few TED Talks online and my favorite TED talk was 'Why I'm done trying to be "man enough" by Justin Baldoni'. In 2021, I started organizing the first TEDx event at FPT University. Since then, I have hosted 3 TEDx events including TEDxFPTUniversityHCMC 2021 & 2022, TEDxFTU 2022. I successfully organized TEDxFPTUniversityHCMC 2023 with the theme "With or Without?". I'm working on TEDxFPTUniversityHCMC 2024.
