MAED is an independent technology studio founded by Maeve, a multidisciplinary designer and builder with 7+ years of experience creating digital products across regulated industries.

With a background spanning product design, technology and law, I bring a systems-level perspective to complex problems: connecting the dots between how technology works, the businesses behind it and the people it affects.

MAED brings that thinking into practice: exploring ideas, questioning how things work and building better digital experiences.
