Grew up in a traditional Christian household and was heavily involved in youth programs. Learned at a very young age how to communicate and work with children of all ages — a skill that would define the next decade of my career.
Earned a degree in Business from SAIT Polytech in Calgary. After graduating, went into commercial insurance, then into marketing for a Thai Vegan operation — mastering the art of sales and public speaking in my home country.
Extensive sales and public speaking training across America, England, Australia, and Vietnam. Moved to England to continue in life insurance, which led to a year in Australia managing recruiting for an Israeli company providing cutting-edge tech to Aussie farms.
Professional recruiter and team builder across moderators, cyber security, marketing, and dev teams. Grew investor community from 5 to 20,000. Launched 4 tokens, bringing in over $20 million in investment through a unique marketing strategy of paying investors to spread the project — versus pump-and-dump influencers.
Personally selected in my early 20s to be part of one of the world's top motivational speakers, Les Brown. This is where I honed the voice and presence that would later captivate thousands of students.
5 years teaching experience in Vietnam, with thousands of students ranging from 1 year old to 70. Trained in Montessori methods, Cambridge, and taught IELTS to grade 12 for 3 years.
Founded NET (Natural English Training) and PrAiS (Phoenix Rising Ai Solutions). NET delivers English mastery through the Tiger Protocol. PrAiS builds gaming, corporate workflow solutions, and chat bots with memories 1000X longer than Gemini and GPT chatbots.
Natural English Training isn't a method — it's a complete identity shift.
Comprehensible Input. The brain learns language fastest when it naturally understands ~60% of what it hears. YouTube. Podcasts. Context. This is how you bypass the dictionary and unlock real fluency.
Traditional centers force Grammar First — creating fear, hesitation, and translation lag. NET unlocks Tiger Mode: confident, high-velocity, room-ownership. Listen → Understand → Speak. Real-time pattern recognition. Zero-judgment zone.
The traditional educational method was a mechanical failure. We do not teach grammar rules. We unlock permission. Grammar First = Fear First. We sell the psychological identity shift required to own the room.
Real-time Pattern Recognition. AI + PET Infrastructure. Local Lakeview Networking. 80% NET Guaranteed Success Rate vs 30% industry average. This is not a class. This is a system.
Master Playbook: Pedagogy, Infrastructure, and the Tiger Protocol. The Lie: traditional education forces Grammar First. The Truth: You are not broken. The Law: confident velocity beats accurate grammar every single time.
Saigon is the economic hub of Vietnam — way easier to get work here. I have an apartment, a contract, and opportunity at home.
Real transformations. Real confidence. Real results.
"I was terrified to speak English. After 3 months with Michael, I presented to my entire company in front of 50+ people. The Tiger Protocol actually works."
"My son went from refusing to speak English to teaching ME vocabulary. Michael has a gift with children — he makes them forget they're learning."
"I scored 7.5 on IELTS after 4 months. My previous teacher had me stuck at 6.0 for a year. Michael understood exactly what was blocking me."
"At 68, I thought I was too old to learn English. Michael proved me wrong. He treats me with respect and patience that I've never experienced."
"The 60% Rule changed how I consume media. I stopped using dictionaries and started understanding English through context. It's faster and actually sticks."
"Michael recruited me for a cyber security role. His ability to read people and match them to the right team is unmatched. Best hire I ever made."
"I launched 3 tokens under Michael's guidance. He taught me that community-first marketing beats pump-and-dump every time. We raised $8M in 6 months."
"My daughter went from hiding behind me when English speakers approached to leading her class presentations. Michael is magical with kids."
"I was selected to work with Michael's team after he spoke at a conference. His stage presence is electrifying — he doesn't just teach, he transforms how you see yourself."
"NET isn't a school. It's a reprogramming. I used to apologize for my English. Now I negotiate contracts in English. Michael built a system that fixes the root problem."
AI solutions that remember. Gaming. Corporate workflows. Chatbots with 1000X longer memory than Gemini and GPT.
PrAiS isn't just another AI wrapper. We're building gaming, corporate workflow solutions, and chat bots that are built to have memories 1000X longer than the increasingly useless Gemini and GPT chatbots. The future isn't about bigger models — it's about smarter architecture.
