✰ What is my background?
Born and raised in Vietnam, lived in Boston, studied Human Computer Interaction, Digital Media Arts, and Engineering Management at Tufts (go Jumbo!). I’ve worked across the product lifecycle, from building 0→1 to scaling enterprise and consumer features.
✰ How did I get into product design?
Before I knew product design was even a thing, I had already dabbled in graphic design, illustration, photography, and pretty much every creative medium I could get my hands on (yes, that artsy kid whom people always went to for all things design in high school). Those experiences trained my eye for visual details and taught me how much I enjoyed bringing ideas to life through creative mediums.
When I got to college, I wanted to look beyond art and challenge myself in completely different spaces. I explored coding, engineering, psychology, and eventually became highly interested in the intersection of design and technology through Human-Computer Interaction.
Since then, I've taken classes and worked on side projects that pushed me to think broadly, make sense of data, and collaborate with students and community members to solve real-world problems. Along the way, I fell in love with the creative problem-solving of product design: understanding people, navigating constraints, and turning messy problems into simple, thoughtful experiences.
✰ What are you up to?
Exploring AI coding tools, reading about Human-AI interaction design (hot take: I don't think adding AI is the solution to everything), envisioning my own startup ideas, thinking about what's next for my career. Honestly, just enjoying this little post-grad life and open to new design opportunities with my dream taste-driven team.

I enjoy meeting and working with new people to solve problems under time constraint👯
Food hunting
As a Viet person, I think Viet cuisine is the best worldwide 🇻🇳
Fun fact: my food pics collection has 1000+ photos 🥢
Galleries and museums
Captured: me and the work by one of my fav artitsts - Yoshitomo Nara - on my solo gallery hopping trip in Tokyo!
My goal is to explore local galleries in every city I am in 🖼️
Watching game streams
I'm hooked by games with interesting stories, good graphics and gameplay 🎮

Communities that shaped me
Communities that shaped me
Learned (and sometimes, failed) how to work cross-functionally for the first time, growing my design intuition as a solo designer! Realizing how design could bring social impacts at scale.
Led a team to deliver a proof-of-concept from the ground up after the previous project was discarded. Learned how to be an effective leader that bridges both design and engineering teams.
Delivered some major design revamps and updated design system when I first joined. Learned how to work in sprints and with other fun student partners across dev, marketing, and product!
