Hi, I'm Oanh Nguyen.

Technologist, designer, researcher, advocate— simply put, I'm interested in learning how emerging technologies can improve our lives in a way that is radically equitable and human-first.

Professionally, I aim to practice law in a field that places me at the intersection of innovation and justice. Currently, I am working full-time while preparing for the 2027-28 law school application cycle.

If you are interested in collaborating, please get in touch; I'm always looking for new opportunities!

      SKILLS

Here's what I know:

User Experience Design

At Arity, I've redesigned the advertising platform experience and implemented a new post-onboarding tutorial process for the Preview App, all through the power of Figma.

User Research

I interviewed 6 team members on the Arity team to understand the pain points in the current content review process. I also conducted a heuristic evaluation to improve the Preview App.

Web Development

I have extensive experience in designing webpages using HTML/CSS and Javascript, thanks to my previous coursework at UNC Chapel Hill. Previously, I designed the webpage for Miss EmpowHer's collaboration with SoFi.

Program Development

At Syracuse University, I created programs in Python and PANDAS using Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques such as parts-of-speech tagging to conduct high-level quantitative research.

      About

Chào! Here's some fun facts about me:

P.S. My first name is pronounced like the number 'one'.

I recently graduated from UNC Chapel Hill in May 2026, completing a double major in Information Science and Media & Journalism. I am also an alumna of Durham School of the Arts, where I held concentrations in 2D Visual Arts and Art History.

Additionally, I hold a Highest Distinction award from the School of Data and Information Sciences after completing my thesis project Generating Patient-friendly Summaries of Clinical Notes with Large-language Models: a Pilot Evaluation in an Oncology Setting.

In my free time, I enjoy drawing art of my characters, concocting new homemade icecream recipes, and planning out the story beats for my Pathfinder 2e campaign. I also am a proud cat mom to 2 furry babies named Melinoë and Thumbelina!
