    Hi there, I'm Grant. I graduated in May 2014 from Iowa State University with a Bachelor's in Industrial Design and a concentration in Engineering. I have a passion for designing (and often building) products ranging from electronic home goods to furniture to architectural installments. I'm ALWAYS learning and ALWAYS improving. The thing that intrigues me the most about product design is that some of the best ideas go completely unnoticed by the user. Good design is just so intuitive that consumers don't even stop to think about what they are doing or how they are doing it. They just USE the product. Currently looking for work.
