A break from business allowed her to recover from an exhausting schedule. That experience prompted her to pay closer attention to exercise, eating habits and cash management, rather than continuing to expand an operation with substantial fixed costs.
Quyen moved to the United States in late 2013. She studied English before turning to retail while raising her family. Following her divorce in 2018, she maintained several income streams, including activities in construction and property.
She now shares care of her son with her former husband on alternating weeks. Quyen arranges work around her child's schedule, makes time for her mother and continues learning as she considers future plans.
