I am a self-motivated, goal-oriented person. Has succeeded despite major challenges. On the boat to freedom, I escaped the North Vietnamese communists who invaded my South Vietnam on April 30th, 1975. I did not speak English when arrived in Seattle, Washington in June that same year. I graduated from the University of Washington with a BS. Mechanical Engineering in 1980, accepted offer to join General Electric company. In 1982, I completed the GE Manufacturing Management Program and the advance degree of System Engineering at San Jose State University. Joined space electronics team of a space company that designed and built rocket engines for on-orbit satellites. Progressed to Senior Program Manager, responsible for multi-million-dollar space programs. I founded my company in 2018, CTH Consulting Services in Georgia.
- As State Representative, I will work with other representatives to pass the two proposals aimed at fighting inflation for Georgians Gov. Kemp announced, one is to refund state income tax, $250.00 per taxpayer, $500.00 per couple. The other is to rebate homeowner property tax. The proposal stated that up to $20,000 of a property’s value would be exempted. The average Georgian homeowner would save up to $500 on their property taxes in 2023.
- Quality of Education – Improve quality teaching and subject matters. The goal is to increase the number of high schools of Gwinnett County Public School rated >8 or higher out of 10. Additionally, subjects like, race, transgender and sex should be left to parents.
- I support electing district attorneys and judges who apply the laws in the book and not legislating from their benches. Secondly, law enforcements need support from everyone to allow them the confidence to do their jobs according to the laws without concern about pollical repercussion. I believe stricter gun laws would not curb the many area-wide shooting because GUN itself does not kill anybody, but rather take away law-abiding citizens the ability to defend themselves as demonstrated by the shootings in Chicago, highest in the nation yet Illinois has the strictest gun law in the nation.
The freedom of choice, the economics freedom, and the rules of law this ‘Land of the Braves’ have afforded me a successful transition from a poor political refugee escaped the North Vietnamese communists who invaded my South vietnam in 1975 to a successful system engineer in Space Electronics industry. As State Representative, I will fight to preserve the freedom, capitalism, and the rules of law in Georgia for younger generations as a form of ‘pay it forward’.

My first job in the US was as a full-time janitor on graveyard shift while I attended the University of Washington full time until I graduated in 3/1980.
