"I first came to HVIET in 2018 and I fell in love with the camp. Teaching as a seminar leader and leading my first house community (go Red House '18 and '19!), I realized the magnitude of impact that I was making on the students participating in this program. I wanted to continue making this program great for all the future participants and decided to come back as director this year with Khai! I look forward to working with everyone to make this year's program the best it has ever been."
