TRANG PHUNG
Trang Phung was born and raised in Saigon, Vietnam, during the height of the Vietnam War. After the fall of Saigon, South Vietnam was under major economic and political distress. In desperation, Trang’s mother raised enough money to arrange for one person to escape on a small fishing boat, and Trang was chosen one, with the mission to rescue the family to the Free World. At age seventeen, she was alone on her journey as a part of the “Boat People Exodus.” After spending a year in a refugee camp, she immigrated to the United States and eventually migrated with her family to the US.
Despite many life challenges, Trang always managed to succeed in her endeavors. In 2010, amidst the global economic crisis, Trang fearlessly transitioned from Regional Vice President of Nationwide, a Fortune 500 Company, to pursue her entrepreneurial spirit and creative passion. She created Trang Phung (formerly Sen Couture), an American-made women's apparel.
Trang's vision and passion allowed her to create exceptional garments that were quickly well-received by trendsetters all over the world. They have been worn by high-profile celebrities and published in many major magazines.
During the Covid lockout, Trang explored another passion of hers, interior design, and finished her training/certification at the New York Institute Of Art & Design. She is naturally thriving in this area, like many others she dedicated her energy to.
Giving back to the community is important to Trang. She has consistently supported many local charities, especially ones that dedicate to caring for poor orphans around the world.
As Trang’s experiences and entrepreneurial ambitions continue, she hopes to advance her company and philanthropic efforts.
