Relatable words about creating, optimizing and being a person.
Kevin Huynh here. I write to connect the dots between work, play and approaching play kinda like work (in a good way).

Raised in Colorado by Vietnamese immigrants, I studied my Master’s in Mechanical Engineering at Berkeley before designing operations for community-driven orgs.
I’m the co-author of Get Together, a guidebook on how to build a community with your people. I wrote it with my co-founders at People & Company, a strategy partner that helps companies build communities with confidence.
I live in Brooklyn, NY with my partner Yoko—whom I’ll probably mention in every essay.
