Ly Nhat Duy Thi

Duy is a curious second-year Digital Marketing student at Swinburne Vietnam. He's on a mission to unlock the secret to building strong, lasting friendships! This "secret" isn't some magic trick, it's a skill we all have but might not use as much as we could. Even though Duy studies digital marketing, he knows real connections go beyond the online world. His own childhood wasn't the most memorable, which is why making strong connections is so important to him. He's on a journey to find this "secret" and share it with others. By learning this skill, he believes everyone can become a "better version" of themselves and stand out in today's competitive world.
