About

Since childhood, I was always drawn to the notion of people performing actions beyond themselves - without request, command, or promise of any return for their initiative. These people were selfless, caring, and interdependent in nature.

They had the "we" mentality and in recent years, with age and greater maturity, I felt compelled to give this the recognition it deserved. 

Thus, Actions Over Words Lifestyle was born.

It's a brand for the doers, the ones that need no special introduction for it's their actions that do the talking; and the impact of said actions is what speaks volumes. 

Two prime examples who exhibited this for as long as I have lived are my mother and grandmother. 

They have had to sacrifice everything - from leaving their affluent lifestyle in Vietnam to escape communist rule, to starting entirely anew here in the United States with minimal resources and having to teach themselves English . . . They are two of the strongest women in my life, and it is largely due to their inspiring examples of grit, determination, unwavering positivity, strength in faith, and unending passion for life that AOW exists.

Actions Over Words Lifestyle was officially established in 2016 but has only recently found its true identity. It is true that "good things take time," but beyond that, it is the process that provides the most profound clarity.

AOW is here to serve as your inspiration, accountability, and community to always live with intentionality and purpose.

• To give of yourself fully with the betterment of others at the forefront.
• To go that extra mile no matter your life passion or given pursuit you choose to undertake.
• To leave an indelible mark both within yourself and for those around you.

 My personal vision, as well as ultimate brand mission:

Provide global recognition and exposure to individuals & organizations performing acts of service and taking initiative for the greater good.

Leverage the stories of amazing people and their noble causes.
