Hello, my name is Saskia and I am from Southwest London. Throughout my university degree I have gained a deep passion for empathetic and user-centred design. I really enjoy trying to understand the user and ensure that their needs are met whilst producing a design which is manufacturable. I believe that this passion allows me to explore a large variety of ideas in the initial stage of the design process as well as critically access and test potential solutions. For my project I enjoyed used a range of testing methods to ensure that my final design would be suitable for users with limited dexterity. I used VR to test my concepts and a third-age suit to test my final design.
After university I hope to get a career in product design and/or human factors. I am currently looking for a graduate position.
Outside from design, I enjoy playing korfball (a Dutch mixed gender sport like basketball!) for university, going to the theatre and reading.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my work and do not hesitate to get in-touch.
Saskia Brewster, MEng Product Design and Manufacture
