I’m Lia, a senior at the University of Michigan studying User Experience Design with a minor in Statistics.

I'm passionate about creating digital experiences that tell meaningful stories and drive impact through both quantitative and qualitative research. As someone who has always been drawn to creativity, my love for design was shaped by the many places I've called home — Vancouver, Ottawa, New Orleans, Detroit, Toronto, and Ann Arbor — which taught me to appreciate different perspectives, cultures, and ways of thinking. Those experiences continue to influence how I approach design: with curiosity, empathy, and a desire to create for diverse communities.

Outside the classroom, I photograph (film photography, specifically), cook, travel, and write.
