Vivien is a founder and graduate of KIPP Navigate College Prep. She attends the University of California, Irvine, and is majoring in human biology. Growing up in a society chock-full of harmful and offensive stereotypes about Asian American Pacific Islanders (AAPI) in popular media, Vivien is passionate about diversifying television and cinema to include more positive and inclusive portrayals of the Asian-American experience. In high school, Vivien served as captain of the Robotics Team and vice president of her school’s ASB senior year. She collaborated with different nonprofit ventures to support causes like children’s education and ending human trafficking. Outside of class, she likes to edit videos, dance, and watch film studies.
