ABOUT ME

Hello,

   my name is Sophie Pitt and in addition to my MA Design studies, I have previously graduated from a Creative Product Design BSc Honors degree (UWE 2019). I have a range of excellent design skills gained through delivery of innovative product designs within my degrees and through my numerous artistic hobbies. I am passionate about the aesthetics of creative design and the influence this has in emotional value, purchasing decisions and how this affects the products unique selling point. Additionally, as a designer, there's such power to help tackle global, social and environmental issues, which is one of the reasons I'm incredibly proud to be a part of this industry. My passion and enthusiasm for all aspects of aesthetic and sustainable design, inspire me to continually strive to produce successful designs of my own. I have an appreciation of the need to understand the risks within a design in order to produce innovative but robust design ideas.
I am currently working at Brunel Engraving Company in Clevedon, where I have had the opportunity to create commercial and industrial products - from memorial plaques and trophies to control panels and QR code labels for businesses. This has been my stepping-stone into the industry and has helped me expand my technical knowledge, using softwares such as CorelDraw, Bartender and Vision. In my spare time I love listening to music, painting, skiing, socialising and volunteering for large events such as festivals and most recently, marshalling at the British Grand Prix.
