Tai Matthew Tran has a passion for singing. It’s a hobby that helps him de-stress and relax. He loves to listen and sing to artists like Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran, Coldplay, and Train. He doesn’t just have a passion for singing, he also loves technology. As director of CNTV he plans on going more in depth with the stories he tells. Tran doesn’t want to aim for perfection, but for an opportunity to grow. He is also the assistant director of PVP Live, an online e-sports network like ESPN that specializes in online gaming. He hopes his experience as a director in both scenarios will help him gain fundamental skills to become a solid director in life. He’s also a director off the set too. As the oldest of five siblings Tran is like a leader to them. He said family life is crazy and fun, and that he wants to be a good role model for his siblings to look up to. In the future one of his dreams is to be able to direct his own news station. The skills he’s gained from directing in life and on set are ones he hopes to use to produce his own material.
