I’m a 22 years old product design engineer and product creator from rural Oxfordshire, UK. I am currently in my final year of study with over two years of work experience. I love to travel, play rugby and lead a very active lifestyle.
I am both focused and creative with the vision to take projects from concept to completion. Studying Product Design Engineering at Loughborough University has equipped me with an excellent design and engineering understanding. This, in addition with a range of work experience has deeply developed my business and entrepreneurial sense.
