Having received an undergraduate degree from Lehigh University in industrial design I found myself looking for more technical knowledge to mix with my design experience. I am now at Boston University working on my Masters in Product Design and Manufacturing. My goal is to graduate with the ability to speak both design and engineering languages fluently in order to combine both in a cohesive manner that cannot be achieved with a focus in only one discipline. Great products must be created from day one with a strong intertwined design and engineering purpose. Being able to communicate fluently with both designers and engineers allows me to bridge these gaps and bring a new perspective to any project.
