About

Hi, I’m Lia - a purpose driven product designer with a passion for creativity, compassion, and creating positive change.I believe design has the power to shape a more inclusive, sustainable, and emotionally connected world. With a background in industrial design and a human-centred approach, I aim to create products and experiences that not only solve problems but serve people thoughtfully, equitably, and accessibly.I’m especially passionate about mental wellbeing, environmental responsibility, and social equity. These values guide both my creative process and the types of conversations I initiate. I love collaborating on hands-on, multidisciplinary projects where empathy, innovation, and meaningful impact intersect.I've been praised as someone who leads with honesty, listens with care, and approaches every challenge with adaptability and heart. Whether I’m prototyping a sustainable product, co-creating resources for underserved communities, or simply learning something new, I’m driven by a vision to design a brighter, fairer future for all.

Meabhrach (Irish for “mindful”) is a holistic service designed to empower individuals through obtaining ownership of their own healing journey. Created for those with experience in counselling or psychotherapy, Meabhrach enables users to engage with their mental healthcare records through a lens of guided self-reflection. Central to the service is the Reflection Hut - a modular, multi-functional space that offers a safe, private environment for stillness, regulation, and introspection. By integrating thoughtful design with mental health support, Meabhrach fosters a more personal, mindful approach to healing.
