Hoan Do is an award-winning international keynote speaker, author of Creating Momentum in Your Life, and city finalist in NBC’s hit show, American Ninja Warrior.
FROM HUMBLING BEGINNING TO A BRIGHT FUTURE
From an early age, Hoan was conscious of the sacrifices his parents had made in their escape to the United States during the Vietnam War- in pursuit of the American Dream. Feeling indebted to his parents for their courageous pursuit of a better life, Hoan vowed to ensure that one day, he would be able to take care of his parents. Hoan’s hard work took him to Malibu, California, where he attended Pepperdine University, fully engaging in the academic rigor and array of opportunities that the school offered.
STRESSED STUDENT TO SUCCESSFUL SPEAKER
With the tremendous pressure Hoan placed on himself, in addition to the stresses of demanding classes, extracurricular responsibilities, and important life decisions, Hoan found himself overwhelmed and battled with suicidal thoughts. His self-esteem reached an all- time low. Refusing to settle and give up on life, Hoan used this experience as a turning point to learn the practical skills necessary to succeed in school and in life.
After graduating from Pepperdine University, Hoan beat out candidates who were considerably older and vastly more experienced than him to work with the #1 personal development company in the world. As a national speaker and corporate trainer, Hoan conducted training sessions for distinguished audiences that included:
Century 21, Bank of America, Honda, Toyota, UBS Financial, Chambers of Commerce, and the U.S. Army.
