Brianna Li,
was born in 2005.
She was diagnosed with auditory neuropathy/dyssynchrony when
she was an infant, and she lived in a totally silent world
for the
first 4 years
of her life.
As she is the only one in her family to
have hearing problem, her family must overcome a lot
of challenges to be able communicate effectively with her.
At the age of 4 she had Cochlear implant and since then
she has partial hearing.
While Brianna faces challenges in her verbal communications,
she found another medium to more freely express herself –
drawing pictures.
She developed her drawing skill at very young age. She has
been winner of many local drawing competitions when she was
at elementary school.
As she is going through her teenage years, her paintings and
drawings are increasingly reflecting her emotions and her
feelings.
Brianna also likes to read, and she received many yearly
best reading awards from school.
Brianna is a very intelligent individual, she is shy
and appears distanced, and she doesn’t seem to mind to be
seen as careless and messy at times.
Her future is
boundless.
She will become a famous painter in the future.
