Introduction:
Welcome aboard ! My name is Phong Nguyen. I come from Hanoi, the heart of Vietnam, but study abroad in the US. At the moment, I'm a rising sophomore at Connecticut College, a liberal art college in New London, CT. Before college, I never thought that I would study computers and technologies but COM110, the intro to Com Sci course, has totally changed my mind ever since. And now, my intended majors are Computer Science and Economics, also with a minor in Statistics.
Why CS and Econ?
Among the topics of Com Sci, Data Science compels me the most. I believe that Com Sci and Econ build a strong foundation to begin a career in quantitative science field. Besides working on data, I am also exploring Software Engineering and Web Development.
Hobbies:
- Music: I bring my guitar from Vietnam to play whenever I have free time or I need to reboot myself.
- Photography: taking photos is a part of me, especially Analog Photography.
- Gaming: Feel free to add me on Steam/Legue of Legends/PUBG mobile. Whenever you meet someone named 'Meobilivang', that's me.
