I'm a Product Designer with a strong foundation in design principles and technical processes, earned through a Bachelor’s degree in Product Design from the University of Canterbury. My studies sharpened my CAD modelling, prototyping, and design development skills, preparing me to turn concepts into tangible solutions. In industry, I worked as a Product Technician at Contex Engineering, where I operated CNC machinery, produced CAD designs and prototypes for an affiliated audio amplifier company, and conducted quality control with precision measuring. I’m passionate about creating thoughtful, well-crafted products that balance creativity with real-world practicality, and I’m excited to explore new opportunities after travelling through Europe.
