Bryan's parents often reminded him to read and visit the library as much as possible during his days growing up in Arlington, VA. The family migrated to USA after the fall of Sai Gon in 1975. The image is Cho Ben Thanh market, located in Sai Gon and one of his favorite places to visit when he comes back to his homeland.

Is a graduate of George Mason University, majoring in English. By the end of his freshman year he knew his desire was to become a writer one day.

The defined moment was in the spring semester of his sophomore when he took a class called Introduction of Film, where the professor asked the class to write a scene with dialogue as it was meant to be seen and heard. Although he continued in the visual arts, he found his combined passions for behind the camera evolving with writers telling their stories.

After graduation he relocated to Orange County, CA, with the original idea of "becoming a writer" for The Hollywood Reporter, The Variety, or Entertainment Weekly. The west coast experience had many memorable moments, where he met Todd Murata and Megan McGonagle at UCLA film summer program.

A few years later he returned back home, because his parents were still waiting for him to get a “real job” with health insurance. He gained his apprenticeship at theatre companies in Washington DC at Studio, Horizon, New Works, and Source, and also at Capital Casting agency.

GiNGA Productions is Bryan's child idea to launch and produce short films with a captivate story, characters are the obvious, or perhaps a scene to back it up. "GI (AI) - NGA" is named after his Father/Mother's first name, and the image is his parent's hometown of Chau Doc, Viet Nam.

It is pronounced like "gee-nah" as in actresses Gina Gershon, Geena Davis. (Note: Did you know Miramax Films is named after Bob and Harvey Weinstein's parents "Miriam and Max" when they started out in the early 1970s. Of course, we know what happened to Harvey in the last few years - hehe!

Bryan holds an MBA degree from University of Phoenix, and also receives ITIL® v4 Managing Professional and ITIL@ v3 Expert certificates in IT Service Management (ITSM) and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certificate in process improvement.

He has worked for a few Fortune 500 companies in Leidos, General Dynamics IT, SAIC.
