WORK EXPERIENCE
Farm, A Flex Company, Hollis NH - Industrial Designer
SEP2022- Present
As an industrial designer at Farm Product Development, I have designed a diverse range of medical products and experiences. I have contributed to projects with large teams and led projects with just me as lead designer, from research all the way through production. I have researched and created anthropometric graphics for the broader design teams' use as reference and to visualize constraints to clients. I have worked closely with human factors engineers during formative user testing and initial user research to develop products that solve important problems backed up by substantial data and reasoning. I have worked closely with in-house and external engineering teams to develop realistic solutions to user challenges that are ready for production and created with design for manufacturing best practices. I have worked with international design teams in Europe and the Middle East, developing a broader professional cultural knowledge and experiencing different design processes. I have gained experience designing wearable electronics, UX/UI displays, large mobile imaging systems, handheld controllers, complex consumables, handheld surgical devices, a variety of medical carts, and various clinical analyzers. I have gained experience in NPI prototype testing and analytics, allowing me to see the direct influence of design decisions on Manufacturing, assembly, and durability. I have utilized physical and digital sketching, digital rendering, prototyping of various fidelities, research, CAD development of various fidelities, animation, graphic design, presentation development, and storytelling skills to aid in my design processes. I have worked with large and small clients such as Medtronic Idexx, Alpfa Medical, Biomerieux, Portal Biotech, and Highridge Medical.
