Duy Nguyen
Duy Nguyen is Vice President & Chief Operating Officer for the Asian Community Development Council (ACDC), a Nevada non profit and non-partisan community development organization serving the APIA communities. Mr. Nguyen pivoted his career from working with Fortune 500 companies - including Verizon Wireless, MGM Resorts International, and Cox Communications - to focus on investment, education, and engagement of Asian Pacific Islander Americans (APIA). In June of 2018, Nguyen founded One APIA Nevada, a grassroots, non-profit organization that advocates for policies empowering everyday Asian Pacific Islander Nevadans. As executive director, Nguyen oversees a state-wide operation to educate and galvanize the APIA Nevadan constituency - every year, not just election cycles. In January 2019, Nguyen was appointed to a 4-year term as a Planning Commissioner for Clark County, making him the first APIA person to serve as a County Planning Commissioner in the history of Nevada. Nguyen holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Management, and a Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.) from the University of Phoenix.
