Referees

EducationDesign for Industry BA HonoursNorthumbria University2010-2014

A-levelsThe Hermitage School2008-2010

Throughout the course I undertook a multitude of briefs ranging from designing teddy bears to smart-watches. This has given me a wide range of skills and knowledge, applicable to numerous briefs and projects.

I have just finished my fourth and final year at Northumbria University and graduated with a 2:2.

I received 3 A-levels from the Hermitage Sixth Form, and an AS level qualification. These were Maths, Physics, Design and an extended project in Physics. For Maths, Physics and Design I received a C grade, and for the extended project I received an A. These subjects are still favourites of mine and I keep familiar with these subjects to this day.
