Co-Founder & COO

Tia has shaped the company’s operational excellence and strategic direction since its inception in 1993. Her training and work as a commercial interior designer have instilled a deep understanding of how users interact with physical spaces and products — insights that continue to influence the company’s approach to product strategy and market positioning.

Tia’s expertise in spatial relationships and ergonomic design adds a crucial dimension to Graphos Product’s analytical framework. Her ability to identify non-obvious use cases and anticipate functional challenges has helped strengthen the company’s product validation and go-to-market processes. As COO, she oversees the company’s operational infrastructure and strategic planning, ensuring Graphos Product maintains its high standards of service delivery while driving sustainable growth.

Beyond her design credentials, Tia’s keen business acumen has been instrumental in building Graphos Product into a leading specialized agency. Her leadership in developing efficient operational systems and nurturing talent has created a robust foundation that enables the company to consistently deliver exceptional results for innovative product makers — with some of the longest-tenured and most respected team members in the industry.

Active in her community, Tia volunteers with local botanical gardens, educational initiatives, and athletic organizations, bringing the same attention to detail and strategic thinking to these pursuits that she applies to her work at Graphos Product.
