Isabel Li, Print Editor-in-Chief

Hi, my name is Isabel, and I am super excited to be editor-in-chief this year. Outside of the Viewer, I am a captain of the girls’ cross country team. I also enjoy playing violin and piano, listening to Noah Kahan, and taking photos. Don’t forget to pick up a copy of the Viewer, and stay tuned for some fire podcasts ;)
