I left Cambodia with nothing. No plan. No language. No safety net. Just my parents and a refugee camp between us and whatever came next.
Today I'm Co-Founder of KOPI, an AI-native growth agency helping enterprise brands across APAC and ANZ get found in the places their buyers are increasingly going first. Not Google. ChatGPT. Perplexity. Gemini. Claude. When your buyer types a question into one of these and your brand doesn't appear, you've already lost the consideration. That's the problem I solve.
We call it AI Visibility — the practice of measuring and improving how enterprise brands are cited, recommended, and surfaced by AI engines. The career behind this spans decades: Seattle to Singapore to Tokyo, AvenueA/Razorfish, Wunderman, VML, and Dynata across 14 countries, six years building TheEngage from zero to profitable without a single investor, and Royal Caribbean as an anchor client for six years with the account grown tenfold.
"You don't wait to be found. You show up."
That's the through line across all of it — the same thing I learned in that refugee camp. If you're thinking about AI Visibility audits, APAC growth strategy, or enterprise partnerships anywhere across Singapore, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Australia, or New Zealand — I'd like to hear from you.
