Anthony was born and raised in a humble village in central Vietnam after the Vietnam War. Despite financial limitations, his parents made great sacrifices to ensure he received an education. After spending about eight years working for an American company, He had worked tirelessly to hone his skills and learn from some of the best professionals in the industry.
Through his hard work and determination, he realized that Vietnamese engineers possessed the talent and ability to excel in the field of civil engineering design projects in the United States.However, in 2016, Anthony noticed a glaring problem. Thousands of talented Vietnamese engineers were being left unemployed, while many US companies struggled to find qualified workers to fill their open positions. This sparked something within Anthony, and he decided to take matters into his own hands. He knew that he had to act on his beliefs and create job opportunities for these skilled individuals.
Thus, he started his own dream called AXA Engineers, with the mission of providing top-notch services to clients worldwide while offering employment opportunities to Vietnamese engineers.

The early days of AXA Engineers were filled with challenges. They didn’t have many clients, and those who did trust them were few and far between. Many employees came and went, and the company struggled with basic business operations. It seemed that the challenges were insurmountable. In order to keep AXA Engineers afloat, Anthony even decided to open a Phalaenopsis orchids store in the early years.
But Anthony refused to give up. He invested countless hours into finding and learning from experienced business management teachers, and he developed a unique approach to running the company. Over time, he developed a unique approach that set AXA Engineers apart from the competition. He focused on creating a supportive and inclusive environment for his employees, where everyone felt valued and appreciated.
This “happy business model” was the cornerstone of AXA Engineers’ success, and it drew in some of the best and brightest minds in the industry. Anthony understood that the happiness of his team and the quality of service they provided to clients were crucial for their success. As AXA Engineers continued to grow and expand, it became clear that Anthony’s vision for the company was more than just a pipe dream.
