OjO.

My employment at Learn With OJO presented the unique opportunity to be part of a multi-disciplinary
team and to work collaboratively and in tandem with others, within the context of conducting human-
centric design research for projects looking into educational systems and the new types of play
experiences thereon. In addition, I was involved in the Company's multifaceted activity workshops
around the country which proved to be invaluable in terms of gathering some tangible insights from young innovators and parents. Through this extensive research, I successfully spearheaded the team
efforts in designing and creating a truly innovative series of STEM based toys (engineering, programming toys) while optimising a harmonious link between the digital and physical play experience.

Product Designer (Freelancing)
Gioview.
United Kingdom
I have experience in bringing high-tech products to life all the way from the drawing board to the final
prototype. Owing to my significant passion for technology and design, I was able to help them visualise
how the 3D Visualiser (flagship product) can be efficiently introduced into areas like healthcare and the workplaces of the future, while adapting the machine learning skill in later development. To do this we
relied on an amalgamation of various techniques including brainstorming and ideation sessions, complex
sketching & drawing, 3D modelling & animation, hand & 3d prototyping, a variety of in-house testing
sessions while also using feedback from prospective users.

freelance
Design Consultant
The LEGO Group.
Denmark
Once more, as a part of a multi-disciplinary team, I had the dream of a lifetime come true as I worked
side by side with some of the industry's most talented professionals. My chief task was to orchestrate a
research programme that would provide grassroots insights as regards the handling/play experience of LEGO's products and subsequently to develop innovative and competitive LEGO concepts to this end.
This task was successfully completed through collaborative work with LEGO's prototype departments and in cooperation with multiple other design teams. All in all, this opportunity allowed me to design new
groundbreaking play experiences which led me to develop a deep understanding of the LEGO
experiences.
