Growing up and being educated in Japan and the USA, he earned his BFA from the School of Art Institute of Chicago in 1992 and then his MFA in the Maryland Institute, College of Art in 1994. Jun Nguyen-Hatsushiba, after 18 years of working in Vietnam is now residing and creating artworks in Houston, Texas.
