About

Hello! My name is Bao Ngan Doan (she/her). I hold a Bachelor's degree in Geography: Data Science, with minors in Informatics and Business from the University of Washington. Throughout my academic journey, I have gained valuable skills in data analysis, various programming languages, and strategic decision-making. Alongside my studies, I actively participate in the Vietnamese Eucharistic Youth Movement, where I have developed leadership, teamwork, and teaching skills. In addition to my academic and extracurricular pursuits, I have a strong background in customer service and management roles. These experiences have sharpened my interpersonal and communication skills, enabling me to collaborate effectively with diverse teams and deliver the best experiences possible. As a first-generation college student from a low-income background, I hold a deep commitment to giving back to my community and creating opportunities for others.
