VIRGINIA TECH
Tam Hoang is a senior graphic design student. While the physical and aesthetic attributes of design were what initially brought her to become a designer, her passion lies in exploring the intersection where design, humans, and technology meet. She believes in the power of design to help make the world a better place for everyone and her work is driven by the stories of people and their heritage. She hopes to make an impact by creating inclusive and meaningful design experiences to help anyone feel like they belong. She is a life-long learner always curious and ready to take on any challenge. When Tam is not designing, you can find her DIY-ing, binge-watching The Great British Baking Show, or learning new songs on her purple ukulele.
