From her disco-era clubbing adventures to her deep connections with friends and family, Vivian's zest for life shines through. Her journey through the five boroughs of New York City, marked by simultaneous hardships and beloved experiences, underscores her unwavering spirit. Vivian's passion for astrology, fashion, and storytelling binds her to her queer community, while her album of memories serves as a testament to a life well-lived and loved. Through her tales of travel, queer love, and friendship, Vivian embodies the importance of cherishing relationships and embracing life's adventures. Her enduring positivity and warmth remind us of the enduring power of human connection.
