Daniel Nguyen

Dan is a well-connected, extroverted professional currently serving as a Regional Manager for Uber in Berlin. With a background in computer science and cybersecurity, Dan has worked as a management consultant at McKinsey before transitioning to his current role. Despite a busy work schedule, he has aspirations deeply rooted in faith and family, aiming to become a pastor and uplift his family from poverty.

Dan was born in Düsseldorf, Germany, as the only child of Vietnamese immigrants. Growing up in a multicultural environment, Dan experienced both the benefits and challenges of being part of a diverse family, with relatives spread across Vietnam, the United States, and Australia. His early interests included sports such as football and martial arts, which played a significant role in his upbringing, teaching him discipline and determination.

Dan pursued his higher education at the University of Düsseldorf, studying computer science and mathematics. After completing his undergraduate studies in 2016, he continued his academic pursuits with a master's degree in cybersecurity from University College Dublin (UCD). These academic credentials laid the foundation for his career in cybersecurity and management consultancy.

Throughout his professional life, Dan has consistently demonstrated a remarkable ability to connect with others, a trait that has undoubtedly contributed to his success as a leader. His passion for sports and martial arts remains, although his demanding work schedule makes it challenging to fully engage in these activities. However, Dan is committed to reading the Bible daily, aligning with his aspirations to become a pastor.

Currently single, Dan's family life reflects his vibrant but dispersed family network. His mother resides in Düsseldorf, while his father sadly passed away last year. Despite the geographical distances, Dan maintains a strong connection with his family members scattered across Vietnam, the US, and Australia.

Dan's dreams are altruistic and ambitious. He aspires to become a pastor, driven by his strong faith and a desire to build a church. In addition to his spiritual goals, Dan is motivated by the objective of lifting his family out of poverty, aiming to provide them with financial security and stability. Balancing these personal aspirations with his professional responsibilities is an ongoing endeavor.
