About Me
Kiaan Singh
Student & Writer — SCIS Shanghai
I am a student at Shanghai Community International School. Living in a cross-cultural hub like Shanghai has constantly pushed me to question how identity is formed, maintained, and negotiated.
This publication, 3 Cipher: Identity, is the culmination of my research under the Three Pillar Project framework, exploring the friction between state boundaries, narrative memory, and political influence.
