I am an extremely enthusiastic, passionate young Product Designer with heaps of ambition and drive. I have a soft spot for toys and children's products, and have recently landed myself my dream job designing toys for Vivid Imaginations.

I have recently returned from a fantastic seven months traveling the world. I was lucky enough to explore Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos. This experience really opened my eyes to the culturally different approaches and outcomes of Product Design.

I achieved a First Class Honours in Product Design from Nottingham Trent University, I was also awarded 'most improved final year product design student'. During my four year course I gained a years experience within industry, I spent five months designing toys for The Little Experience and a further six with Sharon Marston, creating sculptural light installations. These experiences, coupled with a period of freelance work have set me in good stead for the challenges I face in the toy industry.

Outside the design world I am a very energetic person, who enjoys various sporting activities on a regular basis, including; running, squash, and inline skating. I enjoy playing videogames, would like to get back into playing rugby and would one day like to learn how to skydive solo (after a fantastic taster tandem diving in Taupo, New Zealand).
