From a hired dishwasher to a runner

According to sharing, Le Trang Ngan grew up in a situation lacking and lacking the love of a perfect family. In the past, the 26-year-old beauty started her independent life in 10th grade. Le Trang Ngan recounted: "Because my parents divorced, I had to take care of myself from a very early age. When I was in 10th grade, I worked on my own to get m.oney to pay tuition. Later, I applied to wash dishes for the university canteen. Outside of work, I also collected cans at the restaurant I worked at to sell for extra income. Currently , my father has a peaceful life with his new family, so I want to shoulder a l.ot for my mother."

When growing up, Le Trang Ngan had a dream of studying fashion design, but was afraid that the budget would be too large and her family's situation was not abundant, so she had to temporarily put her passion on hold. However, Le Trang Ngan still signed up for a cosmetic tattoo class so she could combine studying and working. Coincidentally, after confiding in a customer, she heard about a fashion business model in the form of exchanging old brands, so she came up with the idea of opening a clothing shop related to this field. After discussing with relatives, Le Trang Ngan began preparing for her personal career.

After 3 years of striving and maintaining a fashion shop, Le Trang Ngan has her own position in the profession and is currently planning to open a trading company specializing in selling cosmetic products. It is expected that her company will open in October 2023. Thanks to her passion for fashion and the support of her friends, the g.irl born in 1997 decided to register to participate in the Miss Petie Vietnam contest to challenge herself as well as let herself shine with her previous dream.

The title of 1st runner-up in this beauty contest is both an opportunity and a challenge for her to start a new journey in the future. The beauty born in 1997 expressed that this is a great motivation for her to strive and achieve more achievements for herself and society. At the same time, she will not betray the trust of the judges as well as those who have supported her on her current path.
