About me
contact info
I'm Alicia Rizo-Liu! I have a Master of Arts in Interaction Design and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. My eagerness to learn is fueled by my constant need for personal and professional improvement along with my innate interest in human behaviors and understanding cultural practices.
When I'm not working on school work, I like to spend time with friends, doodle, read, and watch how-to videos on YouTube.
