Cat Maher
Cida (key-da) is a nickname given to me by my niece.
Ireland
I was born in Laois.
Now living in beautiful rural Carlow. I work remotely and often work with clients internationally.
11+ Years
I have been working professionally for 11 years as a designer, project manager and marketing exec., in branding and communications, arts and publishing.
MA in Design
I received first class honours (1:1) in both MA & BA Hons in Design and Visual communications, as well as a certificate in design research. I am also currently studying a Masters in Art, Psyche & the Creative Imagination.
A bit more about me
With a robust background in design, communications, and marketing, I bring over a decade of hands-on experience from diverse sectors including arts, non-profit, medical and B2B. As the founder of Cida Design Co. since 2019, I have honed my craft and nurtured a deep passion for pushing creative boundaries.
​
My journey took a transformative turn with the pursuit of an MA in Art, Psyche, and the Creative Imagination, beginning in 2022. Delving into Jungian Psychology, I uncovered profound practices that not only enriched my personal growth but also elevated my professional expertise to new heights.
​
Driven by the belief that creativity thrives at the intersection of psychology and design, I am dedicated to integrating these insights into my practice and consultancy.
I've been accused of being…
Amazing to work with!
I didn’t even have a business name when I started with Cat, her ideas and creative skills came to the fore to help me find one. She went over and above on many occasions to guide me on the right path. Her patience, kindness and compassion shine through every time I speak to her.
