WOHA YOUTH SPEAKERS
Emily Nguyen
My name is Emily Nguyen, and I am 16 years old. I was born and raised in London, my parents are Vietnamese, and I was previously a model. I participated in Milan Fashion Week, Fashion Week London, Kids Fashion Festival International, and more events.
As well as a model, I have acquired many roles since then, through my journey, including a kid designer/ entrepreneur, teen reporter, and ambassador of Carrick Education and MAVN charity. I have also attained the title of Miss Regal World of 2020/21.
My work as a kid entrepreneur consisted of a fashion brand called ‘Love Collection’ with designs of traditional Vietnamese dresses mixed with British culture.
I have had experience in hosting charity shows where my first fundraising event quickly became the most impressive with a series of special events that have remained in people’s hearts since- this became a source of inspiration for poets, journalists and major media companies such as Vietnam Television VTV4, Hai Phong Television, Vietnam Association of Vietnamese Poets, World Fashion Media News, British Journalists in Vietnam, HAT News and more, who simultaneously reported on Emily’s Fundraising program with a lot of compliments, admiring my “young age”. It raised £5000, and all funds were sent directly to the charity. I do this to attract many audiences of the community and world to contribute and help people less fortunate than us because together, society could do much more for those in need.
After that, I was hugely honoured to meet and receive gifts from the Vietnam Ministry of Foreign Affairs delegation because of my contribution to promoting the introduction of Vietnamese image, culture and people worldwide.
I have won many awards throughout my journey, including ‘Galaxy of Stars 2020’. ‘Inspiring Young Leaders 2020’, ‘World Women Conference and Awards, and the ‘She Inspires Me Awards’ in Miami. I was also chosen as a Nominee Spotlight for the ‘Humanitarian Awards’ from the IdealMe Enrichment Foundation. I won the ‘Hero of 2020 Award’, ‘Top 12 Young Talent of the World 2020’ by FabUK Teen Magazine, ‘Women of Heart Awards Young Girls of Heart Achiever and Influencer Award 2021’ and ‘International Ambassador of Peace.
I also previously received the role of a FabUK Teen Reporter, where I supported kid talents worldwide. Also, I was a global change maker in 2020-2021 of the organisation Ladies of All Nations International, World Women Visions Awards, Global Elite Award, Peace Love Member of UNESC and I won the title ‘Miss Teen Regal World 2020’.
My journey proves you can achieve anything you set your mind to; if I can do it, you can too. Don’t give up, and always chase your ambitions!
Hence, I wish to be a person who influences in sharing the message that you can do anything you set your mind to, with hard work and dedication – any failures along
The way is just part of the road to success..
