Truong DESIGN
Blending creativity, cultural context, and thoughtful visual storytelling
Hi, I'm Truong (Teddy) Le!
I’m a recent Drexel University graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Graphic Design and a minor in User Experience and Interaction Design.
My Background
Born in Vietnam and moved to the U.S. at 15, I’m driven to bridge cultural context into every step of the design and user experience journey.
Why It Matters
Design should do more than look good. It must clarify ideas, welcome every user, and spark cultural connection. Whether I’m prototyping an app or shaping event graphics, I balance aesthetics, usability, and strategy to create work that truly resonates.

The classroom
Vietnamese Student Association
VSA feels like my second home at Drexel, and I pour that family spirit into every design. I created more than twenty visual themes that weave traditional Vietnamese motifs with a modern spark and shared them across our social channels. Posts for Boba With VSA, Karaoke Night, Thanksgiving Potlucks, Tet, the Asian Night Market, ACE Mentorship, Corporate Tours, and our Culture Show 2025 reached 356,400 people, lifted our audience by 242 percent, and turned each gathering into a place where friends could laugh, learn, and celebrate Vietnamese culture.
ST Maria Gorreti Parish
I began streaming Mass for Saint Maria Goretti in fall 2020, when COVID made in-person worship challenging. Using OBS and a three-camera setup, I deliver a smooth live feed to Facebook so more than three hundred parishioners can pray from home. I monitor chat, share prayer requests, and have trained two volunteers to ensure the broadcast runs smoothly each week. My favorite part is reading the messages of thanks and watching technology bring our community together.
Teapioca
Between classes and design projects, I pick up shifts as a manager at Teapioca, a lively Taiwanese boba shop. A typical day finds me brewing, blending, and hand-crafting 150+ drinks, from smoothies and coffee to classic milk teas, making sure each one tastes just right and gets out the door fast. I also trained 10+ new hires on everything from tea science, sugar adjustments, and flavor tweaks to POS basics, friendly service, and end-of-day cash audits. It’s busy as always, but I love it.
