About Me
Hi, I'm Nhat Trinh 👋
I'm a Software Engineer at Cisco, where I build UI features using React.js and Redux Toolkit for the BGP EVPN app in Cisco Catalyst Center, helping 300+ enterprise customers manage their networks.
Beyond my day job, I'm passionate about AI/ML and building intelligent applications. I'm currently working on Gainful, a scalable web platform that enables users to create custom agentic quant advisors using fine-tuned LLMs and custom ML pipelines.
I hold a B.S. in Software Engineering from San Jose State University, and I'm currently pursuing my M.S. in Data Science (graduating Dec 2025). I love exploring the intersection of web development and machine learning.
