DO NHAT MINH
I believe finance is not just about numbers, it is a language of impact. I aspire to become a leader who uses capital to solve real problems, not just create profit. From entrepreneurship to research and community investment, I have learned that responsibility must grow alongside ambition, and that purpose gives value to success.

Journey from a family meeting room to a global financial dream...
While other children played on playgrounds and read picture books, I spent my childhood in a place few kids ever entered - a corporate meeting room. Every afternoon after school, I quietly sat in a corner of my family’s company. I watched my father and his colleagues discuss numbers that didn’t just change charts, they changed lives. To me, finance was never abstract. It was significant. It had consequences. It came with responsibility.
One day, noticing my curiosity, my father leaned over and said, “Every curve on this chart is a decision made by people, affecting people.” That statement changed everything for me. I didn’t understand terms like ROI or capital structure yet, but I grasped that finance was more than money: it was strategy, discipline, and impact. Those quiet hours in the meeting room planted a seed in me - not just a fascination with financial systems but a desire to navigate them with purpose.
High school was when everything began to connect....
The curiosity from my childhood, the discipline from training, and a growing desire to understand how economic systems shape the world. At Vinschool The Harmony, I built my foundation with Advanced Mathematics and AP courses, scoring 5/5 in both AP Microeconomics and Macroeconomics while earning IELTS 7.5 to prepare for a global academic journey. However, for me, grades were never the finish line. They were just checkpoints. Knowledge only matters if you can use it. And I knew I didn’t want to just learn finance, I wanted to live it.
But fascination alone does not build skill....
Somewhere along the way, I learned that before managing capital, a person must first learn to manage themselves. That belief took me down two unexpected paths of self-mastery: Calisthenics and Cardistry. Calisthenics taught me discipline. The kind built rep by rep, day by day, when no one is watching. Cardistry taught me precision - the art of control, rhythm, and creativity within structure. What started as simple hobbies became silent mentors, shaping my mindset: stay consistent, stay deliberate, and always execute with control. Years later, these are the same principles I apply to research, investing, and leadership.
