LiLi Xiong, Managing Editor

LiLi, a senior, is this year’s managing editor. Previously, she was a student life editor and a commentary editor for the Liberator, but her true passion lies with satirical writing and the Litigator (the Liberator’s parody edition). She loves learning people’s stories and distilling them into intriguing articles, which is why she enjoys journalism. Outside of her responsibilities at the Lib, she likes playing basketball, reading (Kate Quinn and Celeste Ng are her favorite authors) and learning instruments (mainly violin, but she is also mediocre at piano, subpar at ukulele, and vaguely capable at accordion). If you have cool instruments, she wants to see them. She also likes pizza bagels.
