As a Vietnamese-American artist, my primary artistic source material for the last decade has been my personal history and experiences as a female immigrant. Through my artmaking, I investigate my cultural and identity as well as my migration story through photography, video, installation and performance art. I have received grants and fellowships from the Arizona Commissions for the Arts, Art Foundations for Tucson and Southern Arizona, Oklahoma Visual Arts Coalition, and the Oklahoma Center for Humanities. I received my MFA in Photography/Video from Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX, a BFA in Photography from the University of Arizona; and a BA in Economic Geography from the University of Social Sciences & Humanities in Ho Chi Minh city, Viet Nam. Recently, I was awarded the 2023 Second Sight award from Medium Photo and my work work are in the permanent collections of Amarillo Museum of Art, Tucson Museum of Art, the Center for Photography at Woodstock among others. I live and work in Tucson, Arizona, where I am the head of the photography program at Pima Community College
