Hello, I'm Pham Hoang Hai!
"Strong roots, sturdy trunk, and flexible branches"
Bamboo has long been a symbol of Vietnamese resilience and adaptability. From playing pretend battles with friends using bamboo branches in my childhood, the bamboo has been a part of my growing up, shaping qualities that I am and will continue to nurture.
Much like this tenacious plant, I aspire to be a dynamic entrepreneur, flexible in my approach yet steadfast in my ambitions. I find strength in the rhythm of sports and express my creativity through the arts, whether performing on stage or painting with brush.
Like the resilient bamboo with STRONG ROOTS, I grew up with a disciplined family education.
A Patient Sister That Nurtures My Curiosity and Desire for Learning
My family often says I have an insatiable curiosity, always eager to explore the world around me. Though adults were sometimes too busy to answer my innocent questions like, 'Why are some trees tall and others short?' or 'Why is sugar sweet, but salt salty?', my sister was always my living encyclopedia. Her patient, thoughtful explanations nurtured my curiosity and love for knowledge and sharpened my ability to observe keenly and seize opportunities for self-improvement.
My parents have always been my greatest supporters in exploring the unknown. They believe that every journey brings a new lesson, one that cannot be found in books alone. Through our travels, I’ve interacted with diverse groups of people from various cultures, which strengthened my love for adventure, and deepened my curiosity about the world.
Modern Parents That Support Exploration to Build Confidence and Resilience
During a childhood game of pretend battle with friends, a bamboo branch knocked out one of my teeth, and the nickname "bamboo branch" meant to highlight my thin, fragile body stuck with me for a long time. Things changed when I began frequenting the local cultural center every afternoon to play sports and build my physical fitness. It was there that I discovered my passion for basketball. I was selected for my school's basketball team, competing against the top teams in the province. Just as the bamboo stands firm against tempests, my journey of training and self-discipline has fortified my resilience, endurance, and unwavering determination. Now, I proudly serve as the captain of my high school basketball team.
Bamboo is strong and sturdy, yet its branches are soft and flexible, allowing it to remain resilient through harsh conditions. Similarly, I nurture the gentleness of my soul through the arts. My homeroom teacher provided me with opportunities to perform on stage from an early age, taking on various roles as a host, performer, and actor. These experiences refined my communication skills, strengthened my adaptability, and boosted my confidence in public speaking.
Additionally, my passion for painting and creating fabric mosaics helped me find a balance between academic challenges and creative expression.
