About me

Hi, I'm Mai-Lan Khong.

I'm a content engineer and a published author. I build AI content systems for B2B teams who want content to feed their pipeline.

I'm Vietnamese and I live in Spain. I write in English as a non-native speaker, and I have stopped sanding that down.

What I do

What I do at Frontal

At Frontal, I'm Content Lead and I run Content Engineering. Some teams want the machine run for them, so I build and run the content machine behind a founder's LinkedIn. Other teams want to own it, so I train them to run their own.

How the machine works, and the team program I run at Frontal with my post about it, are on the homepage.

Frontal's two LinkedIn content services have their own pages: Done With You and Done For You.


Before content

Before content, I wrote books

I wrote two travel books in Vietnamese. Nice to meet you! came out in 2018, and Himalaya in 2020. In 2019 I translated Brené Brown's Dare to Lead into Vietnamese.

About my English, from my post of :
"For a long time, I thought my non-native English was my weakness here. Turns out the slightly weird way I pair words is one of the things the machine can't copy from me (yet 🤣), and so I have stopped sanding it down."
