Liam Tan

School: College of Arts & Sciences ’27
Instrument: Viola
Hometown: Long Island, NY

Liam is a sophomore in the College studying American History as a major, Legal Studies & History as a minor, and Music as a minor. He would have played the same instruments (violin and piano) as his 5 other siblings, but he made the right choice to pursue viola and piano instead. Besides listening to Lamp and Laufey, he spends his time reading and baking. One fun fact about Liam is that he used to compete in ice dance.
