My name is Vinh H. Nguyen; I was born in Alberta, Canada, and now living in South Carolina!  

​

I attended Wofford College in 2015 with every intention and full motivation to graduate with a Premedical Biology Degree. Although I was a good student, I often forget to set my alarm properly between AM and PM. One of these unfortunate phenomena occurred during my Freshman Year and I woke up late to register for my second-semester classes.

​

Filling up my schedule for the upcoming semester with whatever was left, I ended up taking my first acting class...ever. 

​

"I was scared shitless..."

In the beginning, I despised the class, but as I learned more about the beauty of The Art, I started to love it, but not enough to overthrow my will to go to medical school. As a compromise, I decided to continue to pursue my Biology Degree and take acting classes on the side. 

​

As I got through Senior Year, I thought my hunger for acting would cease and I can finally continue my life as a medical student, but I was wrong. There was a desire to continue learning. Something was nudging at me to pursue acting.

​

"For a long time, I ignored the call"

​

Then came graduation: As I walked across the stage placed carefully outside in the middle of campus, I saw the theatre building from afar...

​

"and then I knew I had to see this path until the end..."
