Bio

I'm Trinh, a senior majoring in Computer Science, double minoring in Engineering and Education at Swarthmore College. I grew up playing online math and language games, which played a huge part in teaching me English (my first language is Vietnamese) and fostering my love for learning. I was privileged to have access to these helpful resources - however, most kids don’t. Therefore, I’ve always been very passionate in designing technology that makes a positive educational impact. I was able to further explore this passion of mine in college. I got involved in a research project on using technology to create effective STEM workshops for middle school students in Chester, PA, where I studied the correlation between students’ interest and response time to class questions. In addition, I got the opportunity to try out product management in educational technology through 2 wonderful internships: 1 at CampusESP, a startup in Philly and 1 at Microsoft’s Datacenter Community Development Team. I'm excited for my journey as a Fellow - I'm hoping to learn essential skills that will help me with following my dream of designing impactful educational technology.
