Jimmy is first generation American born. His father is an amputee war veteran of the South Vietnamese Army and his mother is a Vietnamese refugee, both of whom found their home in America after the American war in Vietnam. Growing up in the Southside of Chicago, Jimmy has seen and experienced firsthand racial, economic, and social harm in the existing systems of power within American society.

One of Jimmy’s core beliefs is that healing with psychedelics should be available to everyone, regardless of the color of their skin or financial situation. And finally, Jimmy strives to be an advocate for plant medicines and psychedelic substances in a way that confronts potential colonization, gatekeeping, accessibility issues in a rapidly evolving psychedelic frontier.
