GM! ☀️
I'm Van Nguyen
.. a "swiss army" product manager with focus on technology. My background is in software engineering, service design, and project management.
I worked with founders and large orgs like Equinox, Simon and Schuster, and Lockheed Martin.
Pursuit

Product Mgmt, Patent Holder, Consumer + Internal Tools
I launched, rolled out, and supported a fitness cycling experience (budget of $80m), that won a SXSW Cannes award, and runs in over 80 locations, everyday.
Adventurrr
Multiplayer Chat with AI (LLM) RPG
Product, Design, Engineer
Reconnect with friends by pulling off a heist anywhere on the planet like F1 Monaco, or Buckingham palace, or the NBA Finals. Full agency over your actions with usage of overly complex LLM prompting.
Hospitality Experience
Enable staff to manage customers of a $1B retail business
User Research, Service Design
The challenge was to solve how we can enable managers and staff to proactively help customers before they make requests, and spend more one on one time to increase sales and hospitality service.
Short Films
Fictional narratives
Director, Producer, Editor
In my spare time, I create short silly non-fiction films and submit to film festivals. I won a few awards (Florida International, Woodstock film festival), and occasionally make humorous videos with coworkers to help morale around the office.
Legends Vol3
NYC Adventure experience
Creator
During the pandemic, NYC became desolate and I wanted to fall back in love with the barren city. I created an experience that takes you across three iconic NYC locations to smoke, eat, and chill.
