Being a Vietnamese refugee shaped my views on the meaning of hope and hard work. I am grateful to America for the US soldiers who helped liberate my family during the fall of Saigon. My father, who was a major in the South Vietnamese Air Force, defended democratic principles during the Vietnam War. Since coming to Orange County, I have reflected on the peace and stability that has allowed my family to pursue our dreams in this great country and provided me with the opportunity to work hard to become a lawyer. With confidence and daring to hope, I am a candidate for Orange County Superior Court Judge. As a deputy public defender, I have more than 18 years of courtroom litigation experience and over 100 jury trials and adjudications. More importantly, I have lived in Orange County for over 30 years, and I love and appreciate my community. My wife has worked for the Orange County Sheriff’s Department for the past 17 years to help keep Orange County peaceful and stable. As a judge in Orange County, I will be tough, fair, caring and uphold the law to help our community flourish. A safe community is a happier community. I want future generations to have the same opportunities afforded me.
