A record of my work, experience, and accomplishments.

• Led a six-member team under the Department of Defense Hacking for Defense (H4D) program to design a scalable backup-generator modernization concept ensuring mission-critical energy and logistics continuity for the 911th Airlift Wing (Pittsburgh IAP Air Reserve Station).
• Applied the Mission Model Canvas (MMC) and Technology Readiness Level (TRL) frameworks to guide technology validation and prototype maturity assessments in alignment with the Adaptive Acquisition Framework (AAF).
• Incorporated Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) and DoD Instruction (DoDI) 5000.02 standards, and other technical reports to ensure conceptual compliance with energy-resilience and infrastructure requirements.
• Collaborated with base command personnel, National Renewable Energy Laboratory engineers, academic professors, and defense specialists to validate design feasibility, refine technical assumptions, and align outcomes with energy-resilience objectives.
• Performed operations and supply-chain analysis of generation, storage, and distribution subsystems, identifying resilience gaps and proposing mitigation pathways to enhance operational continuity.
• Developed a final deployment pathway and cost–risk model consistent with DoD acquisition and contracting frameworks, balancing technical feasibility, sustainment logistics, and regulatory compliance for long-term implementation.

• Partnered with executive leadership to integrate American business and instructional frameworks, strengthening organizational scalability and cross-cultural competitiveness.
• Advised on AI adoption and digital modernization initiatives, implementing tools such as Anki, Notion, and Google Workspace to enhance workflow, knowledge retention, and interdepartmental collaboration.
• Consulted on strategic regional expansion planning, supporting new office development in Ho Chi Minh City and conducting market-entry assessments for additional Vietnamese metropolitan hubs.

• Partnered with company leadership to coordinate regional expansion and manage end-to-end supply chain operations across international markets in Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos), servicing 60+ B2B clients in packaging and specialty paper.
• Supported procurement and logistics for a supplier network of 10+ paper mills across India, Indonesia, and Brazil through vendor communication, freight coordination, and trade documentation under international customs regulations.
• Assisted in securing exclusive distribution agreements with leading paper mills (ITC, BP Security, PT Surya Pamenang), strengthening KQH’s position as Vietnam’s sole authorized distributor in select high-grade paper markets.
• Initiated and maintained supplier-development outreach with prospective partners in the Middle East (UAE, Kuwait) and established early contact with major U.S. paper conglomerates (Georgia-Pacific, International Paper, WestRock, Uline).

• Assisted dispatch and operations teams in coordinating 30+ daily freight routes across Southern California, Arizona, and Nevada, supporting regional trade flow and on-time cargo delivery across key commercial hubs.
• Monitored shipment data and coordinated with drivers and dispatch to ensure adherence to DOT and FMCSA compliance standards, maintaining clear communication and routing efficiency across active freight operations.
• Gained exposure to supply-chain frameworks like network design and logistics analytics to understand how freight coordination and compliance sustain national commerce and defense logistics.
• Developed understanding of U.S. logistics systems through carrier scheduling, customs, and port-entry operations, recognizing how freight networks and the Merchant Marine support trade resilience.
