Experience
From The British Museum to Dulwich Picture Gallery, I have completed work experiences in some of the finest art & design establishments in London. Hosting and leading small workshops for LGBTQ+ community, the elderly and children in Primary education. I enjoyed working in community project because you acquire new skills and I had the opportunity to share my love of design with other people. My career goals are to become a trend/colour forecaster or creative director, which is why I felt that is important that I made my final year project conceptual. This allows me to show my strengths in creating moodboards, colour and experimenting in various textile process. My skills in this area have expanded further in many ways. For example my placement in Germany opened my eyes to advanced European design techniques. I was able to attend trade and trend shows, particularly Dutch Design Week 2018.
