About Me

I am a first-year PhD student in Computer Vision at Mohamed Bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI), under the supervision of Prof. Ian Reid. Previously, I was a Research Assistant at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), advised by Prof. Ngai-Man Cheung.

I was also an AI Research Resident at FPT Software AI Center under the supervision of Prof. Thieu N. Vo, Prof. Baoru Huang, and Prof. Anh Nguyen.

I also have several years of industry experience in AI, computer vision, and robotics, having worked at well-known AI and robotics tech companies in Vietnam, including VinRobotics, MoMo (a tech unicorn), VinBrain (acquired by NVIDIA), and FPT Software.

Before that, I received my B.Sc. in Computer Science from the Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City, University of Information Technology, where I graduated from the talented honors program and was supervised by Prof. Le Dinh Duy.

Research

My research interests lie at the intersection of robotics, computer vision, and multimodal learning, with a particular focus on embodied AI, vision-language-action models, multimodal reasoning, world models, robotic manipulation, and open-vocabulary perception.

More broadly, I hope to build intelligent agents that can perceive, reason, and act robustly in the physical world.

I am also actively seeking research internship opportunities in embodied AI, embodied spatial reasoning, spatial intelligence, vision-language-action and vision-language models, multimodal reasoning, world models, and robot planning and perception, where I deeply hope to contribute my experience in both research and production-scale AI systems. Please contact me if you have any opportunities.
