Yen Nguyen - the model who breaks age barriers in the modeling industry
We spoke to Yen, who is breaking age barriers in the modelling industry. Here are some excerpts from our chat :

-Tell us a little bit about yourself!
My name is Yen Nguyen and I am a proud Vietnamese born woman, currently 32 years old. I moved to Australia when I was 17, a journey that marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter in my life.
-How did you adapt to the cultural change?
The transition was challenging, I was failing in school due to language barriers. Despite these obstacles, I worked tirelessly to catch up academically and build a better future
I used to be really shy, often feeling overshadowed by my insecurities. However, over time, I’ve embarked on a journey of self discovery and personal growth. Through this journey, I’ve learned to love myself and embrace my unique qualities. Today, I stand before you with confidence, ready to share my story and inspire others to find their own path to self love and confidence.

-How did you started your modeling career and what challenges did you face?
It wasn’t easy for me, It took me 29 years to come out of my shell, but now I am ready to embrace new challenges and opportunities.
Getting into modeling industry is a reflection of my newfound confidence and determination. I am eager to showcase not just outer beauty but the strength and resilience.
-What are your goals for the next few years in your modeling career?
I believe in the power of confidence, resilience, and the importance of never stop trying. Currently I’m an official contestant in Miss Universe Vietnam, through this platform I hope to inspire others to step out of their comfort zones and pursue their dreams with determination and grace.
