About Me

• My name is Kiera Li (Yingzao Li). You may also know me as Kinnara (or 紧那罗 in Mandarin).
• I graduated from the University of Waterloo with a Bachelor of Computer Science and a minor in German in 2021.
• I am interested in (roughly in this order):
  • literature (almost all kinds of)
  • music (Lacrimosa, metal, neofolk, neoclassical, gothic, darkwave, martial industrial, CMI bands)
  • religion (major religions)
  • language learning (mostly German, recently Sanskrit)

• Why do I have so many names?

  Well, I am deeply affected by the philosophical game Planescape: Torment. I like this paragraph from the game:

  Fear names. Names have power in identity. Others can use names as weapons. Names are a hook that can be used to track you across the planes... Remain nameless, and you shall be safe.

  I am the Nameless One.

  That's why I use different names on different platforms :)
