Ngoc Chan Hung (Kislee) Nguyen is committed to giving back to the community in Vietnam that shaped him. Kislee’s architectural model for a new library reimagines the space as a social and cultural heart, grounded in local traditions and human-centred design. Every decision prioritises people, from inclusive facilities to open areas that invite connection and nature.
This same community-first mindset shapes Kislee’s life at school. A high achiever and perfectionist, he shares his culture through workshops and creative collaborations, using art as a bridge between students from different backgrounds. As an international student, he offers reassurance to peers overwhelmed by academic pressure, helping them see pathways away from the stress of achieving high rankings.
Kislee consistently creates opportunities for others to feel supported and included using his creativity and leadership.
