Drexel Pro Tip: Take advantage of Drexel’s quarter system by exploring different classes, organizations, and professional opportunities early. Also, start preparing for co-op and external applications before the official search begins, networking and refining your resume ahead of time make the process much less stressful.

Co-Op History: Credit Risk Co-op at College Ave Student Loans; Research Assistant at Henderson Real Estate Institute; Equity Research Co-op with Drexel’s Dragon Fund; Summer Analyst at Bank of America and Morgan Stanley

I am originally from a small coastal town in Vietnam and moved to the United States to pursue my education and career goals. At Drexel, I have been involved with the LeBow College Peer Leader program, the Vietnamese Student Association, SAFAC, and the Dragon Fund. Outside of academics and professional development, I enjoy spending time with friends, exploring nature, canoeing, and running. I became a CPL because I promised one of my mentors, a Drexel alumnus, that I would pay forward the guidance and support I received by helping as many Drexel students as possible.

Talk to me about:

  • Navigating the co-op and internship recruiting process
  • Getting involved in student organizations and leadership at Drexel
  • Building professional relationships and networking
