Alice, a Chinese-American woman wearing red lipstick and a translucent mask attached to a gray tube over her nose, smiles warmly at the camera. She has cool light skin, short black hair, wears a cobalt blue shirt with a colorful geometric pattern, and folds her hands on the control panel of her power chair.
