love in a bowl (1990 to present)
It all started in the 90s with a boom box and serving bowls of pho to the community to bring people together. Friends and family served pho in homeless shelters for decades and taught me to maintain this tradition wherever I go. I work with the community to cook large pots of chicken pho and serve broth made with love. In 2018, I coordinated with local Vietnamese restaurants and local religious affiliations to help feed the homeless during Tet Holiday (Vietnamese New Years) at a homeless shelter in Salt Lake City, Utah .

unity (2015 to Present)
I was the head coordinator of an annual local community Ramadan celebration dinner gathering. This was an Interfaith project to bridge an understanding and clearing up misrepresentations of people that practice the Islamic faith by having a Ramadan dinner together as a community. Most recently, the Annual Ramadan Celebration Potluck was selected as the Intermountain Affiliate of College and University Residence Halls (IACURH)’s Program of the Year. We were able to share with all the universities in attendance how they can take this program back to their campuses. We shared with everyone the impact this has had and will continue to have on our campus and community as we continue to make it better each year.
