Hi I'm Tia Liu
I’m a product maker with 5+ years of experience and a background in HCI & Design. I’ve worked across B2C products in social, AI, and research-driven tools, always making decisions with both people and data in mind.

The kinds of things I build…
Previously, I worked at Microsoft Research⤴︎ for a LLM evaluation tools under responsible AI. I was the founding designer of the 0→1 product Pi Travel⤴︎ , where I shaped core workflows and early user growth. I also worked on B2C social feature at Rednote⤴︎ , designing experiences that reached millions of users.

How I got here…
I host a Master of Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Washington, where my teammate and I received the HCII Student Design Award for our EdTech project in 2025.
Before that, I earned a BFA in Architecture Design at SAIC and designed physical spaces and renovation projects. That training still influences how I approach systems and structure.
