“My heritage and upbringing played a huge part in who I am today. I am so proud to be Vietnamese.” Huskie Women’s Soccer player Nammi Nguyen’s parents arrived in Canada in 1997. After obtaining his PhD in electrical engineering, Nammi’s father became a professor at University of Saskatchewan. Her mother attended the Edwards School of Business and became an accountant. In between all of this, they started a family and settled in Saskatoon, where Nammi grew up. Being Vietnamese is a huge source of pride for Nammi and as the first ever player to join the Vietnamese National Team from overseas, she hopes to be a role model for young Vietnamese athletes.
