Autor

Nhi Yến Đỗ Trần immigrated with her family from Việt Nam to the United States at age ten through the Humanitarian Operation Program. Now residing in Seattle, she cofounded Cherry Blossom Sangha, a mindfulness community dedicated to fostering inner serenity, mutual understanding, and universal compassion. Her diverse exploration of Buddhism, from Theravāda and Mahāyāna traditions to secular applications, has been enriched by pilgrimages to India and Nepal and a residential internship at a Zen monastery. She holds a master's in public administration from Seattle University.
