Hi, I’m Dia!
I’m a multi-discliplinary designer and maker based in San Francisco, with over 4 years of experience in the home industry developing beautiful soft and hard goods across a broad variety of categories. Through my experiences as a designer, mentor and leader, I’ve gained a diverse skill set, a can-do attitude, and a commitment to social change.
While aesthetics, form and function are all fundamental elements of my design process, I intend to approach the world with a focus on user experience and sustainable impact.
