Descripción

An international man of mystery, SUPDAWK is Mr. Vietnam Worldwide.

Learn how SUPDAWK took an iconic Little Saigon immigrant accent and leveraged it into content creator gold, taking him from making birthday shoutouts and ads over Covid, to clubbing all over Asia, to investing in real estate and building a bonafide SUPDAWK global brand.
