HERE'S THE SCOOP
I'm Alex, a fourth year student in the five year Industrial and Interaction Design program at Syracuse University.
As an industrial and interaction design student, I spend time working with my hands physically and on the computer digitally. My biggest strength is my ideation abilities through sketching and rendering on paper as well as prototyping with a variety of materials. I am highly proficient at taking a vague concept and developing the product from start to finish beginning with freehand drawing all the way to understanding the product’s manufacturing process. Digitally, I excel when working in the Adobe Creative Suite as well as the 3D modeling program, SolidWorks.
I have gained a vast amount of knowledge in other subjects as well. I am pursuing a minor in economics and have found applying economic principles to be helpful in the full development of design processes.
Apart from my educational standing, I have grown to become a very driven individual. I am determined and thorough, as well as an effective communicator. Through various roles of employment and experience, I easily adapt to my environment and learn quickly. I possess leadership qualities, but take direction very well and I am always incorporating my high standards into my work and teamwork.
