Jett Development Group, Inc.
Senior Industrial Designer | 06/2022 - Current
As a Senior Industrial Designer I am tasked as Project Lead where I delegate tasks in a team format. I oversee design, provide instruction to Junior Designers and coordinate with Product Development to ensure we meet production timelines accordingly. Simultaneously I perform my own duties which include Concept Drawings, Colorways, Tech Packs, Revisions, and communication with customers. I wear many hats and also take care of all CAD in-house which includes injection molded parts, compression molded foams, and rubber TPR branded badging. With several products out to market in the Outdoor industry, I can operate as on my own, or drive a team to success for both hard goods and softgoods.
