Huan Nguyen

Huan joined Interactive Discovery in 2022. He graduated from Rutgers University in 2010 with a degree in Economics. While at Rutgers, he was a very active member in multiple Asian student organizations and helped coordinate annual events. Huan is multi-passionate and greatly enjoys art, fitness, music production, outdoors, and taking on projects where he can incorporate knowledge and passion into his work. As early as High School, he has been able to use his artistic talent paired with entrepreneurial skills to create products that were in demand.

Ever since graduating from Rutgers University in 2010, Huan has taken on several managerial roles in various industries. In 2015, he made a career switch and decided to move to the Philippines to pursue his newest passion: fitness. As a highly competitive natural bodybuilder, Huan has competed alongside amateur and professional athletes and won multiple bodybuilding events, setting a strong example for his team and clients. Huan strongly believes in supporting and giving back to the community. When the Taal Volcano erupted in 2020, he raised money within one week through crowdfunding and worked with multiple local businesses in Makati City, including a non-profit organization called Operation Blessing to provide bedding, food, clothes, and other basic needs for the victims. In the following year, he raised money for fitness coaches who were directly impacted by the pandemic.

Once Huan returned to the U.S. in 2021, he wanted to apply his entrepreneurial experience and analytical skills in an industry he can grow in. As our billing and financial manager at Interactive Discovery, Huan plays a key role in seeing where and how the practice can become more efficient and improve its operations as we continue to grow in the coming years. His attention to detail and warm personality makes him a great addition in supporting our administrative and clinical team while contributing to a positive client experience while managing client’s accounts.
