About

I'm a product designer who starts with the business. Understanding what success looks like, what constraints exist, and what's actually trying to be solved — before shaping how design can get it there.


Over six years across branding, e-commerce, B2B platforms, healthcare, and consumer apps, I've learned that the most effective design decisions happen at the intersection of systems thinking and human understanding. I build structure first, then layer in the nuance. And when user research contradicts the brief, I know how to make that case.


What's stayed constant across every context is a genuine interest in complexity. The kind of problems that don't have obvious answers, where clarity has to be earned. I work best end-to-end, from framing the problem to refining the details, in close collaboration with product and engineering.


Based in Melbourne. Open to product and design roles where the work is meaningful and design has a real seat at the table.

Testimonials

"Gia was instrumental in transforming our app from a promising concept into a well thought-out, cohesive product. After working with other designers, the difference was immediately clear; she brought a level of direction and confidence that made the entire process feel far more manageable. From the outset, she guided us with a strong point of view, while remaining collaborative and easy to work with throughout. She didnt just improve the design she helped us think more deeply about how the product should work and evolve. We felt genuinely supported at every stage, and the final result exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Gia to any team looking for a thoughtful and highly capable designer."
