Hieu Nguyen

I was born and raised as a Catholic. After living in Vietnam for 14 years, I moved to the United States. I went to Davenport West High School and attended Scott Community College. In 2015, I started a new journey at the University of Iowa. I volunteered at the Newman Catholic Student Center and got involved in other organizations in Iowa City for three years. During that time, I learned a lot of new things, and rediscovered my Catholic faith in college. Catholicism has helped me in life; faith changes my thoughts. I graduated from the University of Iowa in 2018 with a degree in journalism and mass communications. My new goals in life are to help people with God’s gifts, make a difference, and become a saint, I have volunteered with the youth ministry at Our Lady of Victory parish whenever I can since 2018.
