Hiii!

I am Khanh. I am in Computer Science.

In my life, the core value that shapes me is progressive spirit. I always thank myself that I never give up and try my best until the last minutes.

I enjoy arts and music. I am both a dog and cat lover. I love to discover culture from different perspectives.

I appreciate that I receive a lot of support and inspiration at MESA!

I am excited to be a part of the MESA program and be on your side on this journey!

Have a great journey together, and good luck!
