A liberal arts mind with a scientific curiosity
I was trained in language and culture, but I’ve always been drawn to the logic of science: the way data, psychology, and systems reveal what words alone can’t. This blog lives at that intersection: where emotion meets evidence, and the personal becomes universal. Through books, research, and real-world observation, I explore how we think, act, and grow with curiosity and clarity.

HI, I’M TRINH!
I’ve always been drawn to words, systems, and the quiet discipline of making sense of complexity. Studying British and American Culture and Literature shaped how I question patterns: how language builds belief and how culture frames perception.
Years in marketing and my later exploration of UI/UX refined that lens, training me to observe behavior and understand how people interact with systems. I’m endlessly curious about the psychology of decision-making: why people stay, change, or rebuild, and how awareness shifts behavior.
Outside the desk, I seek the same clarity through movement: trekking mountains, freediving, and exploring places that test both mind and body. Whether it’s hiking a trail, diving into the sea, or writing a story, I’m drawn to moments where observation turns into reflection. For me, adventure is another form of research, a way to see how theory meets reality, and how curiosity feels when it breathes.
This space connects psychology, design, and human experience, exploring how evidence and empathy can coexist, and how clarity can lead to better ways of thinking and living.
