As a Senior User Researcher, Lidia brings the voice of the user to engineering teams to deliver products that allow users to achieve their goals. She has uncovered user behaviors, needs and motivations for a range of Canonical products, including Ubuntu Pro and ROCK Images. After completing graduate studies in semiconductor engineering, Lidia started a PhD in the field, but quickly felt a disconnect between the lab and real-life. She then switched topics and completed a PhD in participatory research methods in Singapore. This experience made her aware of the importance of creating more intuitive and enjoyable products and services for diverse users, which has become her mission. Before joining Canonical, she worked as a Product Manager for local startups in the clinical research and CleanTech spaces.
