January to April • Industrial Design Intern
Spring 2024
As an Industrial Design student at the University of Cincinnati, I am fortunate to participate in a professional practice program. Starting in our second-year, we alternate between on-campus education and cooperative education (co-op)/full-time internship semesters. My first co-op was at Leapfrog Brands, located in Chicago.
While at Leapfrog, I had the opportunity to work on a variety of hydration products and accessories for their in-house brands: Ello, Zulu, and Pogo.
Most of my work is confidential, but I’d love to talk about my experiences during an interview, let’s connect!
When I wasn’t working, I could be found visiting coffee shops, sketchbooking, and frolicking around the city with friends.
Fall 2024
September to December • Design Intern
In September of 2024 I returned to Leapfrog for a second internship! In addition to participating in new product development and producing images for marketing, I worked closely with the soft goods and CMF designers. I also updated and created tech packs and art files for production.
