Hello! I'm Trinh, an undergraduate sophomore majoring in design at the University of California, Davis. My passion for art and design began during high school when I enrolled in the Art & Design pathway. With some experiences in art projects and insightful field trips to museums, which deepened my passion for design.
Besides my academic pursuits, I have a keen interest in DIY projects and home organization, which has honed my ability to fix household items. I can fix simple repairs like fixing a cabinet door to wrap shelf & drawers’ liner to make the drawers became new again. I've also become quite proficient at replacing screen protectors, a skill I've honed through assisting my parents and replacing screen protectors to my own devices. These activities help in enhancing my problem-solving skills, which are crucial in design.
Looking ahead, I'm eager to expand my DIY skills to include automotive maintenance. Learning how to maintain and repair my own car not only develop critical thinking but also enable me to save money and improve my analytical skills, which can be useful in troubleshooting design problems.
In my downtime, I enjoy crafting, especially assembling DIY miniature houses from popular brand like ROLIFE, which helps refine my attention to detail and patience, which are the qualities essential for a designer. My other hobby that I have been enjoying over a past few week is binge-watch K-drama. Additionally, I also find doing hands-on task such as assembling furniture from IKEA fun since it challenges me to interpret and implement design instructions effectively
