Versatile product designer

I consider myself to be a versatile designer. I realised early on what type of designer I wanted to be. This helped me make the important decision between choosing Product Design Engineering at Brunel, over Automotive Design at Coventry. 

I wanted to bring my ideas to life, and know how to do it. 

My versatility stems from my inquisitive nature, coupled with my goal to be involved in every step of the design phase. I want to be there from the discussion over the brief, to that last coat of paint. This has helped me work within different design disciplines. However more importantly, it has helped me communicate with colleagues in different departments. Being able to translate ideas and adapt different areas of a product only helps to create an exciting and better solution. This came in handy at my time at Si-Health. 

My long term goal is to be in a leadership position. My high EQ has helped me understand and empathise with colleagues, but I primarily use it as an effective method to understand the user of a potential product. I have the confidence and the characteristics of a leader but I feel I need to gain the experience at the right place.
