Chronic Illness Advocate
ME/CFS and Long Covid
After being nearly bedridden for 3 years with ME/CFS, Lili began their advocacy journey with Solve M.E.'s Community Advisory Council. This was soon followed by the COVID-19 pandemic, and Lili's work shifted to the Long Covid Alliance, where she served as co-lead for the Media, Awareness, and Storytelling working group.
Science and Healthcare
Pre-Therapy Student
With a love of science, people, and helping, Lili is on the path to becoming a therapist. Though she earned an M.A. Communications at Stanford University, she was also that nerdy kid who put random things under a microscope in her free time - Lili embraces science in all its forms. Most of all, she loves getting to know people one-on-one and helping in any way she can. Lili has studied Spanish (10 yrs) and Mandarin (3 yrs), which they hope to utilize to treat underserved patient populations in Southern California.
Nursing Station Volunteer at Huntington Hospital
Miscellaneous
Music, Painting, Languages
MUSIC: Lili has trained in classical piano (8 yrs) and violin (6 yrs). She has more recently taught herself to play the ukulele and flute, and is working on the guitar.
​
PAINTING: Lili enjoys painting for the fun of it. Just as with music, they find that art lulls them into that flow state.
​
LANGUAGES: Lili loves languages, particularly grammars and psycholinguistics. She has studied Spanish for over 10 years, Mandarin for 3 years, has passed Duolingo in French, and teaches Klingon on social media (with the blessing of Marc Okrand, the creator of the language!).
