EMPLOYMENT HISTORYWilliam Hayes Ltd, 2006 to present day. (Packaging distribution), This has been a summer job My responsibilities included dealing with GOODS IN & GOODS OUT, andensuring general up keep of the warehouse. More recently I was in-volved in restructuring and reorganising the floor plan of the ware-house. With my design skills I have helped to design brochures, busi-ness cards and at the moment designing the new van liveries.

Exploria Ltd. 2013-2015 (VW Transporter Conversion)In my placement year at university I worked for Exploria Ltd. The com-pany converted VW Transporter vans to bespoke camper vans for the commercial and leisure industries. Whilst on placement I design and produced the graphics used in their company brochure also designed a new seat cover.

From the age of 6 years old, I was a member Scout movement, through which I completed my Duke of Edinburgh award, Bronze, Silver and Gold. Which I received at St James Palace in 2011. The D of E taught me how to develop and work as an individual and in a team making on the spot decisions, during our expedition. The process has had a positive effect on myself confidence and social life. The skills I learnt and the experience as a whole is something I can take with me into future ventures.

In my spare time I several interest. My fathers passion for cycling means that I regularly cycle with him. I also was a member of a local mountain bike club but University put this on hold. Also I have skied from an early age and also have now learned to snowboard and still go with friends and on family holidays, and it is something I look forward to every year. I took up canoeing as part of my D of E and enjoyed the team aspect of the sport.

Currently I am trying to broaden my design skill set by illustration tutorials on the internet.

A small electic rally-inspired car that can gather is power back on decents.

This van can extend in sizeto make for a bigger payloadand decrease in size for city driving.

A live project with Lacoste looks ata shoe with a interchangeable sole.
