A Bachelor of Architecture (professional degree) from the University of Arkansas, Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design (Class of 2012), he worked as an architectural designer in his fast-growing home city of Saigon since his graduation. He is currently pursuing the Master of Advanced Studies in Architecture at the University of British Columbia, School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture.

Long’s formation at the Fay Jones School, which once boasted one of the Top 20 architectural schools in America, afforded him the privilege to receive excellent teachings from renowned architects and educators, namely Marlon Blackwell, Stephen Luoni, Peter Rich, and Korydon Smith. Practicing in Saigon, one of the most vibrant cities in the world, has also rewarded him a new appreciation for the values of architecture and urbanism in the world of the 21st Century. Thanks to his work at DE-SO Asia and, prior to that, Ardor Architects, he has developed an expertise in the study of urbanism and cultural sustainability.

He is currently completing his Master's studies at the University of British Columbia, School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture, where he also serves as a graduate teaching assistant and research assistant.
