About me


Hi, my name is Tia.


I am a GRAPHIC and INTERACTION DESIGN based in NYC. I have a deep appreciation for typography and the craftsmanship behind building design systems, refining every detail with precision. I believe that great design goes beyond visual appeal; it creates meaningful experiences and offers thoughtful solutions to real problems. 

In my free time, I’m drawn to BIOLOGY and the intersection of science and art. I love how the logical, precise nature of science collides with the creativity of art, especially when it comes to visualizing the invisible. Similar to bio art, which makes the unseen visible to help others understand, I aim for my design work to clarify complex problems and deliver solutions in a similar way.
