Hi there, my name is Thalia…
and I’m a designer and strategist living and studying in New York.
strategy / connection / storytelling / systems / interdisciplinary / modular
Originally born and raised in the sunny island of Singapore, I first moved here to study at New York University’s Stern School of Business, where I majored in Finance. After working in management consulting and tech for a few years, I found myself itching to do something more mindful, creative and tactile. My next chapter has taken me to my Masters in Industrial Design at Pratt Institute, where I’ll be graduating in 2026.
I’ve made the decision to be on the move from summer 2024 through 2025, and will be making my way through Rwanda, London, Tokyo and maybe more as part of my studies in Global Innovation Design. As a way of keeping in touch and also keeping track of myself, I’m planning to document my experiences and reflections in a new blog here.
If you’d like, please say hi - to share ideas, collaborate, or just make a new friend.
