Biography

My name is Dang Dinh Anh Tuan (Anton Dang), and I’m a high school student from Hanoi, Vietnam with a strong academic focus in STEM, especially Physics and Computer Science. I’ve always been fascinated by how scientific principles and technological systems shape the world around us. To pursue this passion, I’ve dedicated myself to studying intensively, often through self-directed learning and participation in academic competitions.

Throughout high school, I’ve maintained a high GPA and continuously challenged myself in advanced coursework and Olympiads, particularly in Physics. I’ve also taken part in international programs like SEAYLP 2024, which broadened my academic perspective and deepened my motivation to contribute globally.

Beyond the classroom, I engage in research projects, lead STEM workshops, and tutor younger students in science and English, reinforcing both my knowledge and communication skills. These academic pursuits have helped me grow not only as a student but also as a problem-solver and team player. My dream is to study cutting-edge technology, especially in the semiconductor field, and contribute to innovations that drive sustainable development.

This self-made portfolio shares my academic journey, achievements, and aspirations as I continue to pursue excellence and impact through education.
