I am a postdoctoral fellow at the National Center for Theoretical Sciences in Taipei, mentored by Professor Chia-Fu Yu. Previously, I held postdoctoral positions at the Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics and the Institute of Mathematics, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology. Beginning in Fall 2025, I will be a Visiting Assistant Professor (postdoc) at Binghamton University.
In May 2020, I earned my PhD in algebraic geometry from the University of Virginia, where Andrew Obus was my supervisor. My research interests lie in arithmetic geometry, with a focus on studying the families of wildly ramified Galois covers of curves, employing tools from higher class field theory and non-archimedean geometry.

Before switching to mathematics in 2012, I worked for a year as a mechanical engineer, specializing in designing injection molds for plastic parts and in the development of humanoid robot legs. I received my Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology in 2010.
Here are my CV, research statement, and a brief record of my teaching experience.
