Phuong Trinh Nguyen

A final-year law student at the Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam, specializing in international law. I have applied my legal knowledge through moot court competitions, publications, and research projects, thereby developing strong skills in legal research, writing, and communication, along with the ability to perform well under pressure. I am eager to gain hands-on experience as a legal intern in a dynamic, professional law firm.
