About

Trinh is a digital editor who is in charge of developing well-researched content for Vielala. Born and raised in Sài Gòn, she has a deep appreciation for the city's culture, history, and vibrant way of life. Her inclination to bridge the gap between languages has driven her from her own early struggles as a learner to becoming a writer and language instructor, sharing her insights and practical tips to help others navigate the same journey with more ease.


She wrote for hellobacsi (a Vietnamese online health information platform), ila (one of the earliest and longest-established English language centers in Ho Chi Minh City), maikatours (a tour operator specializing in private tours in Vietnam and Southeast Asia). These positions have sharpened her writing skills and given her a versatile range across health, education, and travel content.



Her favorite Vietnamese idiom: Có công mài sắt, có ngày nên kim

Funniest language mistake: She once mistranslated "beef burger" into Vietnamese as "burger containing a cow"😄

Thing she gives up on: New Year's resolutions
