Since graduating in 2025, I’ve started work as a Product Designer with AlphaSights. I’m part of a multi-functional team, delivering solutions within the expert knowledge industry.

My role involves overseeing projects from initial concept through to implementation, working closely with different teams to create user-centred solutions.

The collaboration and people skills acquired during my course have been particularly valuable in my career so far. They’ve helped me communicate effectively with colleagues and manage relationships with stakeholders. Working in project teams helped prepare me for the importance of presenting ideas, gaining feedback and adapting solutions based on input from everyone in the team.

I also continue to apply the iterative design process, honed during my degree, in my day-to-day work. Regularly testing, refining and improving ideas has become a key part of how I approach design.

My advice to anyone considering Loughborough Design School is – don’t hold back! Seize every opportunity that comes your way. Make the most of the School’s facilities, learn from the people around you and take advantage of your tutors’ expertise, guidance and feedback.
