In honor of Immigrant Heritage Month, we are sharing personal stories from members of our technology team. You’ve seen their work in the immigration management platform. Now, learn about what drives them.

Michael Nguyen – Product Support Analyst

Where are you from?
My family immigrated from Vietnam during the fall of Saigon in 1975.

What do you love about your heritage?
I am from a Vietnamese royal family; one of the few royal families in Vietnam. So I am royal by birth. Vinh Thuy (Bao Dai) was my grandfather’s brother (the first born). Bao Dai was the final emperor of the Nguyen Dynasty.

Why is immigration important to you?
Immigration is important to me because so many people are willing to risk their life to chase a dream in hopes to live a better life.

Why did you choose VISANOW as your place of employment?
I needed a job [laughs]. I truly believe in what we do and our mission, to improve the legal services experience and fulfill our customers’ dreams.
