Born in Vientiane, Laos Kid Jungle arrived in the United States in the early 80s post Vietnam War. Trying to assimilate to US culture he found his place through Hip Hop. Coming up as a bboy,he was able to use the dance as a way to express himself while finding his strengths and weaknesses.

As an independent artist he learned how to teach class, be a public speaker, create deadlines and goals, learned to negotiate, how to network, and find gigs online. This has caused him to go back to school to get his bachelor’s in sales and marketing and eventually land a career in sales.

He’s competed throughout the U.S. worked with many artists, and in 2010 and 2011 he directed his first production in Shanghai, China and at the Pritzker Pavilion downtown Chicago. He has also semi-managed a few artists to help them find opportunities as dancers.

Kid Jungle’s entrepreneurial spirit has lead him to launch his own brands such as the Battle of the Breaking Dojos which is a competition league for younger breakers and their schools and the Power Style Radio Show which is an online radio show that speaks about Hip Hop culture. His goal has always been to find sustainability through his talents and find opportunities for those that are in his network. His affiliations include Phaze II Crosstown Crew, Renegades of Funk, and Chi Rock Nation.
