About me

I wish to apply for the position of Junior Designer. I have recently graduated from Sheffield Hallam University with a 2:1 BA in Product Design. I am an ambitious and committed designer and my goal is to join a design team, which is at the forefront of progressive product development and the cutting edge of design.

I am experienced in the use of CAD software such as Solid Works, rendering software Keyshot and photo view 360 and in the use of Photoshop and Illustrator. I have been used to organising my time effectively to manage multiple projects together and on numerous occasions have been required to present my work and ideas not only to my peers and lecturers, but also to live brief clients.

During my time at University I undertook a diverse range of design briefs, which included children's furniture, electronic equipment, eco friendly packaging and sustainable sporting equipment. For all of these projects I have considered the environmental impact of production and the whole life cycle, sustainability, simple and effective design, cost effectiveness, whilst always looking for a new and innovative way to use unconventional materials.

I am particularly interested in outdoor activities, my hobbies include surfing, snowboarding and skateboarding and I regularly go camping. I have recently traveled to Canada where over several weeks I was successful in achieving my Level 1 Snowboarding & Level 1 Park teaching qualification. This has enabled me to develop my interpersonal and communication skills and I believe has given me a much better understanding of how to empathize and motivate others.

I would be eager to undertake any training available to learn new skills and develop and improve on my knowledge. I am used to working as part of a team having undertaken numerous projects with my peers, during my studies. I am flexible regarding working hours. I believe I would really enjoy working for the company and I hope you will look favourably on my application.

Please find attached my CV, which also details a link to my online portfolio to enable you to view my design projects to date.

Yours faithfully

Darcy Wright
