    hello! i'm vivian li.

    Iā€™m a student based in Los Angeles, studying in the Iovine and Young Academy at the University of Southern California. I'm a big fan of telling stories in beautiful ways, especially about human computer interaction, social connection, and urban sustainability. I love to explore new spaces, both physical and digital. Welcome to my playground!

    What better tool than code to bring my visual ideas to life? I'm focused on using frontend development to propel interactive media and data storytelling. I also coded this website with SvelteKit (here's how)!

    Ah, the power of words. More than anything, I love to talk. Distilling ideas to their core components, figuring out what they mean, and sharing them with others. Thankfully, I get to do a lot of that here.
