I design user-centered products through research, 3D modelling, rendering, and visual communication.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently completing an MSc in Product and Technology at Nottingham Trent University, building on my industrial design background through user research, concept ideation, 3D modelling, rendering, and professional collaboration.
At Rove By ENZAHOMES, I researched client needs through site and market visits, developed user-centered product concepts, and worked with manufacturers to bring new product lines into production.
I've also led graphics and social media design at HammerHead Enterprise, creating print and digital assets including brochures, business cards, social graphics, and website layouts. My work applies layout design, colour theory, and typography across collaborative campaigns.
Across internships and design roles, I've translated complex briefs into 3D models, spatial concepts, rebrands, and tangible products using materials including paper, fabric, metal, and acrylic. I'm seeking the opportunity to contribute to an innovative design team while gaining industry experience.
