Background

About Vincent Thai

I had wonderful careers at Nortel, Bellcore, Bell Labs, IBM, and Alcatel. At these large enterprises I had wide opportunities to work in many gifted talented people and businesses (development, research, marketing, contracts, technical support, product management). Bell labs was all research and had a lot to offer to a young engineer when I first started my career in telecommunication. I learned so much and appreciate the brilliant dedicated people all around me. It was one of America last mighty innovation hub. Patents, new ideas, adequate resources were abound. Work at Nortel and IBM where I spent most of my early career was half engineering and businesses. I loved the work. I wished they, management were were aggressive and allow younglings like me to do more. I later found that I thrive when I have the customer interactions and being able to effect and direct the decisions a business make. At Alcatel, I had the privilege to do that by directing one of their new product taking it from concept to deployment into customers green fields. I would love to do it all all over again. At some point, I decided to head out on my own starting and running a business. I chose real estate because I already had significant investments, experiences, and contacts. Through the Lord time, I made the jump through acquiring an already established Realty firm in the Cary, North Carolina area.
