Product Design
My design approach pulls from the skills of my personal passions, whether that be painting, special effects makeup, film/photography or CAD and supplements this with the technical skills I have in mechanics, electronics and coding.

Stabilize infusion pump - Functional prototype
The functional prototype for my final year project is an infusion pump designed for pre-hospital use, featuring a built-in piggybacking system. A deep dive into coding, electronics and mechanics of the pump pushed me to achieve new heights in those skills.
Stabilize infusion pump - Aesthetic model
The outer form for the infusion pump, is based on the functional prototype, with additional features such as an IV bag hook.
Stabilize infusion pump - Vein finder
To assist in the locating of suitable veins for IV therapy the Stabilize infusion pump features a built-in vein finder. You can see the larger vein in between the two sources of light.
Blackout bourbon - bottle
A week-long design project to create a bottle for the fictitious brand Blackout bourbon, inspired by 1920s prohibition-era America. My first short turnover design project it developed my skills in project planning and priority.
Blackout bourbon - Render in environment
A render in its intended environment of use to demonstrate scale.
WWF shopping scanner - Render 1
Another week-long design task was to create a product for a service-based brand (WWF). The scanner makes use of the growing trend in RFID labels to provide users with more sustainable shopping options on the go. This project taught me to incorporate and study a brand's ideals and culture into a product.
WWF shopping scanner - Render 2
The scanner can be placed into its charging port above a recycling bin, when users are unsure if a package can be recycled they scan the label and the device informs them of the correct procedure for disposal.
Flea free - Aesthetic model
A pair of devices is used to monitor weather conditions and provide flea treatment to pets when deemed necessary. This project was my first attempt at more complex prototyping.

Work Experience
During the summer of 2017, I was involved as a creative to set up a local event which sponsors a different charity each year. I had volunteered with the charity sponsored that year before and was put in a team to help create a layout for the event as well as personally being responsible for graphics design work and on-site photography for the event. This experience highlighted to me the importance of community engagement and the consistent, precise planning that is required to meet larger deadlines.
