About Lisa Maio

Hi there! I am a senior product designer with over 15+ years of experience. I have expertise in designing data visualization, SaaS, IaaS, and e-commerce products.

As a perpetual learner, I have explored multidisciplinary design areas, including graphic, motion and product design, as well as working at enterprise and startup companies.

When I’m not strategizing and problem-solving, you can find me in nature, dabbling in photography, exploring new places or spending time with friends and family.

My Philosophy

Process Oriented

I enjoy finding frameworks to improve workflows and analyzing their effectiveness to create well-designed systems that produce desired results efficiently.

Simplicity

I thrive on complex challenges and prioritize a simple user experience. As Charles Eames famously said, "The details are not the details. They make the design."

Openness

I value new experiences, connecting with people, and having fun at work. I believe in creating a safe space for open discussions and healthy debates in the workplace.

System Thinker

System thinking has given me a new perspective to approach problems by considering the entire system as a whole, rather than just individual elements.

Tools

Over the years, here are a few of the most used tools in my toolkit.

“Thanks Lisa for always giving your time and sharing your thoughts everything - from UI, talking about components, trade-offs. I always feel better out of our conversations with a laugh or 3. Thanks for being a listening ear for me.”
