I'm Joline, a third-year Economics student with an Industrial Design minor at Georgia Tech. As a descendant of the Cambodian genocide, I carry a deep awareness of the privilege of safety—one many generations before me did not. I see studying Economics as an extension of that privilege: the ability to access data and research to understand how socioeconomic systems shape lives. This perspective drives my commitment to amplifying unheard voices and translating analysis into thoughtful, human-centered solutions.

My interest in product and strategy-adjacent roles stems from that same desires. Since June 2025, I have interned in Go-To-Market Strategy and Operations at QuantHub, a Series A B2B SaaS AI startup in EdTech. While this role has strengthened my understanding of market dynamics and customer needs, it has also motivated me to move beyond pure sales and work more cross-functionally—particularly at the intersection of problem definition, user insight, and scalable solutions. As an Economics major at an engineering-focused institution, I thrive in environments where technical, design, and business perspectives converge.

Ultimately, this trajectory reflects more than just a career pivot—it reflects how I move through the world. At its core, I carry my family's legacy into the work where data, design, and empathy are held to the same standard—and where impact on real lives is never abstract.
