My Mission Statement
As a client, we are committed to serving your family as our own, caring for your legacy and the generations to come.
My Story and Services
Welcome
My practice was built on the foundation that competence and knowledge are fundamental to wealth creation.
My team and I are dedicated to helping clients meet their goals by delivering a vast array of resources through Morgan Stanley’s robust platform, allowing clients to have access to the intellectual capital of some of the world’s most seasoned and respected investment professionals, a premier execution platform, and a full spectrum of investment choices. I have worked with high net worth families for over 15 years and leverage my experience advising institutional capital to drive wealth accumulation through tax strategies and increasing yield while minimizing risk.
Working together, our focus is to:
• Simplify financial complexity to help you achieve clarity and control
• Manage investments with an unwavering focus on your personal goals
• Create comprehensive, multigenerational wealth management plans based on your needs, challenges and the values that guide your life and legacy
Background:
My parents migrated to the United States at the end of the Vietnam War after the fall of Saigon in 1975. Born and raised here, I am deeply influenced by the belief that prosperity begins with knowledge and a little luck from effort and preparation.
The pursuit of knowledge has been a lifelong passion. My father, an accomplished academic in Vietnam, instilled its importance when he re-enrolled in college at the age of 31 while also juggling several jobs and raising a family. He earned his doctorate in education and he later founded a successful charter school.
With humility, I’ve tried to live by these values in every station I’ve held whether it was working for a tech start-up in the late 90s, an investment banker throughout the tech and housing boom in the 2000s, and again as an asset manager in this past decade.
In the last 15 years, with the tremendous economic growth in my hometown, I took my experience and passion for investing to start a financial services practice to help clients solve for the problems that arose for me--how to grow the wealth you’ve earned and make it last for generations, how to preserve the assets, and, nearest to me, how to pay it back and forward to others.
I am passionate about working with people, mentoring colleagues, and supporting my community.
In 2022, I founded EverKin Group at Morgan Stanley a practice operating as a boutique financial services provider, focused on comprehensive wealth management services to families.

1Alternative Investments are speculative and include a high degree of risk. An investor could lose all or a substantial amount of his/her investment. Alternative investments are appropriate only for qualified, long-term investors who are willing to forgo liquidity and put capital at risk for an indefinite period of time.
2Investing in the market entails the risk of market volatility. The value of all types of investments may increase or decrease over varying time periods. The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of sustainable or impact investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because sustainability and impact criteria exclude some investments, investors may not be able to take advantage of the same opportunities or market trends as investors that do not use such criteria.
