About meHi, my name is Brenda Dao and I am a 2015 graduate from Oregon State University with a degree in Public Health and a minor in Ethnic Studies. I will be pursuing my Masters in Educational & Leadership Policy with an emphasis in Student Affairs at the University of Utah this upcoming August 2015. I am a First-Generation college student, a Vietnamese-American woman; with parents who immigrated from Viet Nam in the early 90s. My family and culture has shaped my experiences and has led me to where I am today. Some of my passion lies in the work of Social Justice and Diversity - how to cultivate change through embracing empathy and learning from each other's story. |
