Kelly Li

Kelly graduated from Yale with a B.A. in Political Science, where she spent her time as an advocate and peer mentor.

Previously, she worked as an AmeriCorps' JusticeCorps member, providing direct service to self-representing litigants. Her senior thesis dealt with California's Three Strikes law, which she hopes to continue researching during her time at PFJ. Hailing from Los Angeles County and the San Gabriel Valley, she is excited to return home to serve her community at the LA Public Defender's office. She loves spending time with her dog and attending concerts in her free time.
