Creative Mornings is a monthly free breakfast lecture series, gathering the world’s global community cities across the world featuring free coffee and breakfast. This month our theme is Crossroads, and will feature speaker Hiền Lâm, Chief Prophecy Fulfiller at Huck Finch, a design studio known for its bold, unapologetic websites. This month will also feature music by DJ BATZ of House Music For All. Everyone is creative, everyone is welcome.
Hien is no stranger to April’s theme, CROSSROADS. Born to refugee parents who fled the Vietnam war to San Jose, California, his life has followed a series of unexpected turns—from studying in Aachen, Germany, as an exchange student to earning his master’s in Healthcare Administration and working in healthcare before meeting his business partner at a healthcare consultancy in Michigan. Together, they created Chillpill, a blog exploring Buddhist, minimalist, and stoic philosophies—his first creative endeavor sparked during a time of profound questioning. In embracing these unexpected turns, he transformed what began as a side-hustle into his main pursuit—a reminder that sometimes the most meaningful paths are the ones we never planned to take.
