Graduated from Nottingham Trent University Product Design (BA Hons) with 1st Class Hons in Summer 2019. I have a strong passion for user-centered designs that have positive social impacts. During my time at University, I completed a year in industry at The Walt Disney Company as a Product Development Intern for consumer electronics, novelty toys and play sets. I also had the opportunity to work at The Walt Disney Company as a Product Development Associate after my internship within the UK Fashion development team. In July 2019, I won the New Designers LEGO Award for Playful Creativity for my final year project emoshi, which aims to help reduce children\'s stress and anxiety through teaching children to learn how to communicate their emotions. emoshi was also awarded the Rado Star Prize Public Vote Award during Design Junction in September 2019 and the DeadGood Design Award for 2019. In March 2019, my minor project CRE8 was shortlisted for The Green Project Award where I was invited to exhibit at Munich\'s IHM Design Week. CRE8 is a sustainable toy design that helps to promote positive social interactions between players. Product Design Portfolio - https://issuu.com/katythomas
