HI, I'M SIYAO (LISA) LI

I'm an intellectually curious cat herder with a magnetic attraction to dumpster fires. 


Translation: I’m a driven problem-solver who thrives on tackling challenges with a team by my side. I believe the best progress comes from continuous learning, collaboration, and pushing through adversity together. With an entrepreneurial mindset, I approach each new project as an opportunity for growth for myself and those around me — and I’m always ready for the next adventure.

​

I'm passionate about human health and wellbeing. Ecosystems I am interested in include Healthcare, Biotech, Sustainability, and Education.
