About Kevin Liu

I am an infra-product engineer at General Translation based in San Francisco.

I am 19, and I've been coding and designing since I was 12. I am currently attending Princeton University.

I design interfaces that feel alive, from first principles, with a spirit of their own. I follow friction toward what is missing, and treat environments as part of the product. I build strange observations into useful worlds through type, skills, and protocols.

Find me on X, GitHub, and LinkedIn, or write to hello@kevinliu.studio.
