About 

Sky Dong, borned in Vietnam, grew up in Singapore and graduated in UK. And now, immigrated to US. It was a long and tough journey , yet , the experience that i went through for decades has made what i am today and this is the most valuable resources for the future in term of  multiculturalism , life styles, education, arts and human.

My expertise is Interior Designer .  With extensive experience in executive-level consulting and solid record of achievement, I offer skills that will be of value to the project that i am working on regarding to how big or small scales they are. 

I am always the guy with my hand raised and i volunteered for every opportunity that came along, more so out of a desire to learn and gain new experiences than it was to get my self noticed. I believe that the best way to stand out, at works or in any organizations, is by doing a great job at whatever it is that you’re currently doing.  I strive to be the most effective, most collaborative, and most results-driven leader that I can be.

As time goes by, here are the key results in this and previous positions include:
• Leadership Experience
• Technical  Proficiency
• Involvement of architecture, interior, F&B, hospitality  projects


My hands-on experience is complemented by my specialized education and training. In addition to a Degree in Interior Design, I have often attended those seminars/events as such Furniture Fair, Architectural Exhibitions, Milan Fair so on. That would enhance my knowledge as well establish the personal connection to the industry.
