Industrial Design
An MSc Integrated Industrial Design graduate from Loughborough University with two years professional experience. My design abilities come from a passion for problem solving, teamwork and relationship building. I love people and enjoy working in a team, bringing projects to life with strong communication throughout. I am dedicated and hard working and will always go the extra mile.
Aura
University major project with the goal of enabling psoriasis (an autoimmune skin condition) patients to maintain treatment on the go. Contains medicated treatments and a phototherapy/cooling device to treat individuals suffering from psoriasis. Convenient, lightweight and easy to use.
Professional Work
A highlight of my professional experience as a Design Engineer at Gtech was designing a lightweight hedge trimmer, battery and charger range of products. This project involved designing a compact and lightweight hedge trimmer that aligned with the companies existing garden tool range of products.
Inclusive Hub
A university project involving a critical analysis and literature review of an existing product. Analysis of the Google Nest Hub revealed that older adults may struggle to use the Hub due to there needs not being met. A concept was designed to help remedy these issues with a more inclusive Google Nest Hub and a new Smart Wearable Device.
Drill Surfacing
Organic form modelling and redesign university project aiming to exploit advanced 3D techniques. The aim of this assignment was to generate a high-quality assembly of an existing product using surface modelling techniques, which are based on 3D scan data of that existing product (power drill).
Garden Tool Harness
University/Gtech sponsored project with the aim of developing a support system to promote neutral posture when using garden tools. The new concept aims improve garden tool user experiences, enabling use of the product for hours while minimising fatigue and stress to the user.
