An Edinburgh-based Product Designer in his final year of undergraduate degree, with experience proven by 2 internships and additional delivered work.
My current project revolves around designing wearable tech that supports users while being visually elevated – merging jewelry and tech.
I am highly interested in learning about manufacturing, materials and processes involved in high-end products.
Background
Industrial design, with its overlap between humanities and sciences, was something I have gotten into while studying visual arts as part of International Baccalaureate. Following move between countries and a period of practical exploration I began my studies in 2022 at the University of Edinburgh. Ever since my admission into Product Design programme, my practice has been developing across multiple fields.
My Journey
Making full use of available opportunities thanks to unlimited right to work in the UK, I successfully performed within organizations of various shape and size. Be it laying the groundwork for nation-wide service reform, running user tests in IT department or helping a small business scale up – I am not afraid of taking initiative in challenges. Same can be said for instances of leading a team, which I have done twice for semester-long projects.
The design and service-oriented positions that I have held over past years were characterised by fast-paced collaboration to fulfill high expectations of clients. Thus I have a strong set of communication and research skills that when combined with brief-specific tools, enable user-centred design. As a result of that my body of work, ranging from furniture and jewelry to services and apps, is characterised by attentiveness.
My current development goal is to align the practice closer to physical objects, while applying the existing set of skills in new terms.
