Abstract

I am a function forward designer with experience in biomechanics, fashion design, coaching and collegiate athletics. I have a passion for creating products that allow athletes to reach their highest potential through injury prevention and performance innovations. My top five strengths from the Clifton Strengths Finder are as follows, with definitions summarized (Gallup, 2022). Individualization: intrigued with the unique qualities of each person, passionate about meeting people at different stages of their process and seeing ways to improve things for each individual rather than adopting a one-size-fits-all approach.Empathy: able to intuitively share others’ perspectives, connect to and understand people’s stories and experiences, capable of anticipating the needs of others. Ideation: fascinated with ideas, innate ability to connect the dots between seemingly disconnected phenomena. Strategic: able to quickly spot patterns and potential downfalls, easily create progress in alternative ways, capable of seeing solutions that many cannot. Positivity: contagiously enthusiastic, able to bring energy to projects where it may be difficult to muster, making everything a little bit more exciting.
