Isabelle Reid

I am a first-year Product Design Engineering student at Brunel University London. During the beginning of my course, I have already worked on multiple individual and group projects. These assignments have allowed me to become a great team player as well as function in fast-past environments. 

In addition, I had work experience at Arrival, a sustainable commercial vehicle manufacturing company for one month. There I spent my time designing a bus stop where I did presentations and assisted the supervisor in various different research. I was also a social media volunteer for Environmenent4Change, an environmental non-profit organisation in which I uploaded content and engaged with users.

Finally, I am fluent in French and have a basic knowledge of Italian. I am able to use all software programs necessary for the role including Solidworks, Fusion 360, Keyshot and Photoshop at an intermediate level. I am detail-oriented, a fast learner and determined to meet and exceed your expectations.
