Over the past decade, I have built a multifaceted professional career that spans consulting, academic training, international conference engagement, editorial responsibilities, and extensive industry experience in supply chain management. My professional journey reflects a strong commitment to bridging academic knowledge with practical expertise, particularly in entrepreneurship, digital transformation, and supply chain operations.

I possess 10 years of hands-on experience in supply chain management, working across various industries and operational environments. My specialization includes inventory management, warehouse control, procurement coordination, and optimization of logistics workflows. Throughout my career, I have contributed to the design and supervision of inventory systems, improved warehouse efficiency, implemented stock rotation and forecasting models, and supported organizations in establishing streamlined operational processes. This practical experience continues to inform my teaching and research, allowing me to integrate real-world supply chain challenges into academic discussions and applied training sessions.

In parallel to my industry practice, I have engaged in consulting and training activities focused on entrepreneurship development, innovation-driven business models, digital transformation strategies, and operational improvement. I have designed and delivered training programs for students, early-stage entrepreneurs, and business professionals, helping them develop competencies in strategic thinking, business model innovation, financial literacy, and technology adoption. My consulting work has supported small and medium-sized enterprises in refining their strategic direction, strengthening managerial practices, and adapting to competitive and technological shifts.

My academic presence is strengthened by my participation in numerous international conferences, where I have presented peer-reviewed research across Europe and Asia. I have delivered papers at leading academic platforms, including ACIEK (Academy of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Conference), EFMA, the International Symposium on Entrepreneurship Education in Asia, and the Vietnam Symposium in Entrepreneurship, Finance and Innovation. These conferences have enabled me to engage with global academic communities, exchange insights with international scholars, and contribute to ongoing discussions in entrepreneurship, innovation, and digital capabilities.

I have supervised numerous students at both the Bachelor’s and Master’s levels, guiding them through the full research process—from topic development and methodological design to data analysis and final thesis defense. My supervision experience spans a wide range of topics in entrepreneurship, innovation, digital transformation, human resources, sustainability, and management, enabling students to produce academically rigorous and practically relevant research. I provide structured, personalized support to help each student build strong analytical, writing, and critical-thinking skills while ensuring their work meets high academic standards.

In recognition of my academic expertise, I serve as a reviewer for multiple respected journals, contributing to the advancement of scholarship in entrepreneurship, management, and digital transformation. My reviewing roles support the evaluation of empirical and conceptual research, ensuring academic rigor, methodological soundness, and relevance to the field.

Across all facets of my professional experience industry practice, consulting, teaching, research dissemination, and editorial service I remain committed to cultivating impactful knowledge and advancing organizational excellence in both academic and applied contexts.
