Junior Designer

• Aug 2012 - May 2013

Though this was my first professional design experience, I was often left to run projects with minimal oversight. Due to high project turnover, I quickly came to understand the value of good communication and collaboration with my team. Throughout my time at Origin, I worked on range of exciting projects, from initial ideation and concept exploration through to testing and validation of designs. This placement was part of the Loughborough University Diploma in Professional Studies. Of which I wrote a Dissertation which explored why a company may choose to undergo a re-brand and the successes and failures of past company re-brands.
