About

I am a highly ambitious and optimistic Software Engineer from the University of Queensland. Passionate about programming, problem-solving, and teamwork, I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy tackling complex challenges. Beyond my technical skills, I am a friendly and approachable communicator, making me effective in both team settings and client interactions. I bring a positive attitude and strong motivation to every project I undertake. Throughout my studies, I actively participated in numerous events to maximize my academic and university experience. I am an Australian citizen with security clearance and have experience working in diverse environments with people from various cultural and traditional backgrounds. Fluent in Vietnamese, I also hold a Certificate of Proficiency in Vietnamese (Advanced). In my spare time, I enjoy playing social sports, particularly football and badminton. I am always looking to expand my skill set, learn new technologies, and gain hands-on experience in the industry. With a proactive and adaptable mindset, I tackle challenges head-on and aim to inspire those around me.
