I am a recent graduate in Product Design from the College for Creative Studies in Detroit MI; where as my focus while in school was in small household electronics and furniture. I believe my fresh thinking and approach to design will be an asset to your company. I am able to conceptualize, sketch, and build products in multiple 3D modelling programs quickly and efficiently, while maintaining strict guidelines or none at all depending on the situation.
