Meet Jay, the president of KSE Systems. His parents came from humble beginnings, having immigrated to America in 1990 from postwar Vietnam–without a single dollar in their pockets. From an early age, he was taught to be independent and use his own skills to make his goals into reality. After all, most Vietnamese immigrants understood that nothing was guaranteed to you in life, and that the only thing you could truly rely on was your own willpower. Everything that he does today is in appreciation and respect for his parents’ journey, and he wants to be able to give the same opportunities he received to those who seek to forge their own destinies. Today, his goals include making his firm the top performing branch in the nation for his clients, building dance studios for kids, and writing novels.
