Hello, I'm Tran Nguyen!

About Me

Greetings, I'm Tran Nguyen, currently in my fourth year pursuing a BS in Computer Science at California State University Long Beach, with an expected graduation in December 2025. I have a strong interest in the field of data science and am actively building my skills to pursue a career in this area. Although I’m just beginning my journey, I am eager to apply my analytical mindset and technical knowledge to real-world data challenges. Additionally, I am bilingual in Vietnamese and English, which enhances my ability to communicate effectively with diverse teams and stakeholders. I’m looking for opportunities to grow as a data analyst, ideally in Orange County or in a 100% remote position, where I can contribute to data-driven decision-making.
