Email

The best way to reach me is via email. I try to respond to every email. However, I tend to procrastinate on long/non-urgent emails, and sometimes forget to respond altogether. If I haven’t replied in a week, feel free to follow up.

Social media

I use social media, but don’t spend a lot of time on it. The services I use include:

  1. Twitter: I read Twitter DMs, but I find its inbox hard to use so please don’t use Twitter to reach me.

  2. LinkedIn: I read LinkedIn messages but I prefer emails.

  3. YouTube: I’m camera-shy, so I haven’t done a lot of videos. But I want to change that.

  4. Facebook: I publish my Vietnamese writing on my public page. I post random, infrequent life updates on my personal account. If we aren’t friends on FB, your message will go to Other folder and I don’t check that folder.

  5. Instagram: If I don’t follow you on Instagram, your message goes to a separate folder that I don’t check.

tl;dr: follow me on social media but reach me via email.

Scheduling

Please send a calendar invite for any scheduled plans if I haven’t already. I may forget otherwise.

Conclusion

When it comes to communication, I’m systematic but not inflexible. This post is a reference to avoid misunderstandings, not a rule. Some of the best memories I’ve had are from spontaneous decisions. I’d love to have more free spirits and rulebreakers in my life.
