Matthew Son Nguyen | Co-chair
Pronouns: He/Him Hometown: Dallas, TX Year: Senior HEY YALLLLLLLLLL. My name is Matthew Nguyen (he/him) and I’m a fourth year student majoring in Civil Engineering. Born and raised in Carrollton, TX (DALLAS), I grew up with little contact to my Vietnamese roots but coming to Stanford has changed my world. I never even imagined I’d be dancing for a dance group in a million years and now here I am being the face of Stanford’s FIRST and ONLY Vietnamese dance group. You know I kinda skipped dinner today so reading this makes me hungry and im lowkey craving bún thịt nướng even tho i just had it the other day so ill stick with that as my favorite dish…ACTUALLY I WANT BÚN BÒ HUẾ 😭 anyways i love talking so feel free to add me instagram @mnguyen715 or facetime me if you’re brave 🥸 9729043221 Fav MLH experience: I’m so honored to bring my journey full circle as I wrap up my last year at Stanford. I’m looking forward to ending my time with a bang, but to turn back the clock, my all time favorite memory is stepping onto the performance stage for the first time as a pseudo-core member and hearing all the love and support from my biggest FANS (haha get it?) as I embrace my sexiness with my heart all out on the floor. |
Nicholas Bui | Co-Chair
Pronouns: He/Him Hometown: Arlington, TX Year: Senior Halloo~ I'm majoring in Symbolic Systems. I come from the DFW area in Texas where I spend the majority of my time lounging with my cats in the sun channeling their "not a care in the world"-energy. You'll definitely catch me running around campus pulling khùng and điên (very important MLH members) so give me a wave if you do. I'm always down for a round of anything competitive which usually comes in the form of card games and sports (I'll probably lose but I'll try my best *~*). Looking forward to a fun year with all you cool (new?) MLH peeeepss! |

Who doesn't love the satisfying crunch at first into the soft, sweet, and savory noodles? (っˆڡˆς)? Boba to drink after is a must! My favorite definitely has to be lychee slush boba with any flavor popping pearls and lychee jelly. You have got to try it :)).
