New American Business Association Inc. Celebrates Small Business Success: Elevating Louisville Beauty Academy and Di Tran
The New American Business Association Inc. (NABA) is thrilled to highlight the success of Louisville Beauty Academy, a small business that has transformed the lives of over 1,000 graduates and is setting its sights on reaching 2,000 graduates. Under the leadership of Di Tran, recently honored as one of Louisville Business First’s Most Admired CEOs of 2024, Louisville Beauty Academy is a shining example of how small businesses can drive workforce development, community empowerment, and economic growth.
A Vision of Opportunity and Inclusion
Louisville Beauty Academy was founded with the mission of providing education and workforce opportunities, especially for underrepresented communities. By embracing diversity, the academy has become a hub for individuals overcoming barriers such as language and cultural differences. With students speaking five or more languages, the academy fosters a welcoming, supportive, and patient environment where everyone can succeed.
At the heart of this success is the leadership of Crystal Beeler, the “Most Admired School Director of 2024”, whose dedication and care embody the academy’s mission. Together with Di Tran, Crystal has helped create an institution where love, hard work, and opportunity thrive.
Di Tran: A Beacon of the American Dream
Di Tran’s story is a testament to the power of perseverance and the opportunities available in the United States. Arriving in Louisville in 1995 as a Vietnamese immigrant with no English skills, Di Tran worked tirelessly to build a better future. With support from Catholic Charities, an ESL teacher, and the Louisville community, he earned advanced degrees from the University of Louisville and Sullivan University. Today, he leads a state-licensed and state-accredited beauty academy that generates $20 to $50 million annually in economic impact through its graduates and their businesses.
Di Tran’s message of gratitude resonates deeply:
“It is only about me when I need an example to thank the United States and all its people. Louisville is my home, and the opportunities this country has given me are unmatched. I owe everything to God, my mentors, my team, and this community.”
Small Business as a Catalyst for Growth
The success of Louisville Beauty Academy demonstrates the critical role small businesses play in shaping communities. By providing affordable beauty education, fostering entrepreneurship, and breaking barriers for underrepresented individuals, the academy exemplifies NABA’s mission to elevate small businesses and empower new Americans.
Looking Ahead
As Louisville Beauty Academy continues its journey toward 2,000 graduates, NABA stands proudly in support of its mission and impact. Small businesses like Louisville Beauty Academy are the lifeblood of communities, driving economic growth, creating jobs, and transforming lives.
