BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Yen earned her Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, majoring in Tourism Management, in 2005. She built her career working with leading companies in the tourism, golf, and hospitality sectors in Southern Vietnam. In 2009, she took a leap into entrepreneurship, founding ALObooking, a hotel booking service catering to the domestic market. Within just two years, ALObooking became one of Vietnam’s top 10 local hotel booking websites.
Driven by a passion to showcase Vietnam’s beauty to the world, Yen launched ALO Travel Asia (ATA) in 2012, expanding her vision beyond hotel bookings to offer curated travel experiences for international visitors. She is currently the Managing Director of Kovena in Vietnam, a payment solution for the hospitality and tourism industry from Australia.
“I have always had a deep love for travel. Before college, I was torn between choosing Tourism and Trading as a career path. I followed my heart and chose Tourism—and later co-founded ALO Travel Asia. Turning my passion into a business was truly a dream come true. Like many entrepreneurs, I’ve been deeply involved in growing my company, but I always make time to explore new places across Vietnam and Southeast Asia. You could say I’ve been bitten by the ‘Travel Bug’—and I wouldn’t have it any other way!”
Dao Quynh Anh is the co-founder of ALO Travel Asia and a purpose-driven entrepreneur with over a decade of experience in the tourism and hospitality industry. She leads a dedicated team of travel consultants committed to designing personalized, high-quality travel experiences across Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia and Thailand. With a strong focus on care, attention to detail, and authenticity, Quynh Anh ensures that every journey reflects ALO Travel Asia’s values and delivers the level of service global B2B partners can rely on. She is also the founder of ACE Coworking and ACE Hub—creative spaces that reflect her passion for meaningful connection, quality, and community. As a lifelong traveler, Quynh Anh finds inspiration in discovering places that offer exceptional service — and brings that insight back to enhance the journeys her team brings to life.
“I believe the heart of every journey is human connection. Through travel, I hope to share the beauty of nature, culture, and kindness — and make every guest feel cared for, like family. To me, life is about collecting meaningful travel experiences that help us grow, not things. I care about helping travelers make the most of their time and discover the world in a way that feels authentic, enriching, and thoughtfully designed.”
