Product development for Evenflo's car seats, gates, gear, playtime brand Exersaucer, bath and other products categories for baby and parent.

Working for Evenflo has allowed me to work in collaboration with designers, engineers, marketing, sales and manufacturing teams. This experience has given me intimate knowledge of how products are designed from inception to retail. I have also learned the best methods for finding design solutions that customers want out of their purchases. Evenflo has also taught me how to deliver my designs on time and within budget.

I created custom fit products including vacuum formed plastic retainers, sport mouth guards and whitening retainers. The retainers were built by hand after vacuumed formed and finished with rotary cutting and smoothing.

I aided in consulting work for medical products and services. Many of the projects required me to be self-directed. During my internship, I also completed an additional project with Kolar.

I contributed to the industrial design team and collaborated with engineers on electric outlets and products.
I aided in brainstorming, concept sketching, Solidworks modeling, research and presentation preparation.

I contributed to the design team through brainstorming, concept sketching, and finalized designs of high quality home
furnishings. Four of my designs were completed and considered for sampling during the internship.

I aided the design teams of bath, toy and feeding with brainstorming, concept sketching, research, sample
building, and presentation preparation. I also created and gave a presentation on trending topics about "Millennials".
