What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that emphasizes sustainability, innovation, and collaboration in design.

I am an innovative Industrial Designer with a strong passion for sustainability and a proven track record in product development. My expertise lies in CAD modeling, prototyping, and market research, allowing me to create designs that are not only functional but also environmentally responsible. I thrive in fast-paced environments, managing multiple projects efficiently while meeting tight deadlines.

During my internship at DESIGNwith in Toronto, I designed sustainable product concepts by researching eco-friendly materials and ensuring a balance between form and function. I led material research initiatives, created 3D models and prototypes in SolidWorks, and collaborated with manufacturers to ensure feasibility and cost-effectiveness. My commitment to optimizing product designs for scalability and minimal environmental impact drives my work.

As a student monitor at OCAD University, I promoted sustainable fabrication processes and facilitated peer feedback to enhance design outcomes. I believe in the power of collaboration and iterative design, which is essential for creating innovative solutions that align with sustainability goals.
