She also serves as Executive Director of CyberKid Vietnam, a social enterprise in Vietnam that pioneers online child protection and civic digital literacy development. Prior to these experiences, from 2017 - 2020, she traveled to over 9 developing countries to lead, organize, and participate in approximately 50 social projects centered on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
