My full name is Sean Alexander Brown  (First name is Sean, middle name is Alexander and last name is Brown. Thus my name can appear as Sean Brown if middle name is omitted or Sean A. Brown, or Sean A Brown if middle initial A or A. is used with first and last name).  I was born in Vietnam on October 15, 1985, my Vietnamese birthname when I was born is Pham Nguyen Dong (or Phạm Nguyên Đồng by Vietnamese spelling).  My ethnicity is 100% Vietnamese,  I moved to Oahu, Hawaii, USA since 2000 and became a U.S naturalized citizen in 2007 when I get my American citizenship and american name Sean Alexander Brown which I have used since 2007, though many have known me as Pham Nguyen Dong (or spelled  before my new American name Sean Alexander Brown is used since 2007 . (I choose an American name that is Sean Alexander Brown after naturalization process is complete in 2007 as my birthmother remarried and she took on the last name Brown of my stepfather, I myself have never been married and not sure when I will have a family of my own, I also have no full sibling). For those that know me from either names, recognize my photo (my appearances have changed quite a bit since my teenager years, such as getting older, though I have never gotten plastic surgery or any significant alteration to my appearance,  I used to have long hair back in my college days when I was surfing and playing sports a lot round 2006-2010 even though my gender has always been and will be male since I was born, I am about 5'7, weigh between 145-160 lbs, brown eyes and black hair, never dye my hairs, probably never will, do not wear eye changing color contacts either, I do not have any Tattoo, never have and probably never will, not that I have issues with having tattoo, just not for me, it looks painful with the needle and I don't want something permanent on my skin that I was not born with), know that I am the same person :)

I have been an avid private natural gemstones collector and over times as I acquired more and more gemstones, I have became more fascinated how beautiful these sparkly things can be.  I do think while the four C used as standard measure to describe gems are quite capable of fulfilling its purpose, the combination of color, cut, clarity, carat and other uniqueness characteristics of a fine gem make each individual gem unique and should be appreciated as such. My goal is to collect the most aesthetically pleasing gemstones of many varieties.  After building up a gemstone collection over time, (I do have a lot of gemstone in my collection that is not listed or shown in photo, so if you are looking for a specific gemstone, do consider message me what you are looking for) I think it is time for some of these gemstones to be used in jewelry, for display so their beauties can be appreciated in person, for collection even for long term investment (yes, most gems do tend to appreciate in prices over time in the long run), or other purposes that people may use them for. Thus in January 2021, Gorgeous Gemstone LLC is created so I can put some of the gemstone from my collection to Gorgeous Gemstone inventory and list it for sale.  Gorgeous Gemstone LLC is a single member LLC, in other words, I am the only one owning and operating it, I am not hiring any employee at the moment, there is also no shareholder as it is entirely privately owned by me,  I am not looking for any investor, and have never received any grant or taken any loan either, it is completely self funded though my own savings.  I like the freedom, responsiveness, flexibility, autonomy,  and simplicity of a single member LLC structure organization.   ( on the side note: although I am fascinated and passionate about gemstones because they are sparky pretty little things, I am completely straight, in other words, I am completely heterosexual, not that I think there is anything wrong with any other sexual orientation, but being straight is how was am born and how I am.  Also, while my education and license is not in gemology, I graduate from university of Hawaii in 2008 with a degree in economics, and 2010 with an accounting degree from Shidler college of business, I also have a cpa license number 39163; I do spend a lot of times researching and learning about gemstones, their characteristics, values, beauties, learning how to use equipment to identify them. For most higher value gemstones , certification from ethical and honest gemstone labs are already acquired and included with purchase, and lab certification can be requested for any gemstones sold by gorgeous gemstone llc)

​

Gorgeous Gemstones LLC is based on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, USA where my primary residence as an American is (though I prefer to travel often, especially to the place of my birth which is Vietnam).  Since it is a single member llc, I am the only one operating and making decisions for it, in other words, I build Gorgeous Gemstone LLC up from the ground up and do everything in this organization.  I have been working for myself as an self-employed since 2014 and have not been under anyone's payroll since 2013 (it was not by choice at first but it has become my choice now after so much time wasted on job search from 2013-2016).  Gorgeous Gemstone LLC currently only have an online store and do not have a physical store yet, and I am not planning to open a physical store anytime soon due to the need of being physical presence for such a store most of the time while I enjoy traveling from time to time, however, if you are on Oahu and wants to view a gemstone and/or making a purchase in person, you are welcome to send me an email so we can schedule a viewing in person provided that I am also on Oahu at that time and not traveling someplace else. (I may post notice on this website to let potential customer know if I am traveling at that time). 

​

Note:  you can only buy gemstones from gorgeous gemstone LLC from me directly ( again, I am usually on Oahu, Hawaii where my residence is if I am not traveling).  

​

Besides being involved with gemstones, I also am an active cpa, I have a consulting single member llc called Brown Consulting LLC (registered in Hawaii), my cpa license is 39163, do consider contacting me at +18088001704 for consulting needs if you are looking for an consultant and want to work with me.

I also like magic the gathering card games quite a bit so I collect, buy and sell mtg cards as well. my individual store seller name (I am the only one running it) for mtg cards on tcgplayer is mtgcardforsales. (I will also stop all mtg listing on tcgplayer when I go on my trip to Vietnam starting mid may 2024 until my return October 2024)
