About

Hello, my name is Damini! I’m an industrial designer with a love for inclusive and human centred design - I am so passionate about creating meaningful change. My focus is on designing accessible, inclusive solutions that empower individuals and ensure everyone has the opportunity to thrive. My year on placement at Mima helped me to discover this desire to make the world more equitable. I am also really invested in medical design - recently taking part in the Sanofi Device Innovation Challenge ranking 3rd globally. My projects usually are around anything to do with women's health - something that I feel so strongly about. Beyond design, I participate in kickboxing at Loughborough. I also am regularly volunteering, I want to do my bit to give back to the community. I have been volunteering since the age of 9! My ultimate goal is to create designs that truly improve lives and cultivate a sense of belonging for all. My Instagram showcasing my design work: @daminik.design
