About me

With my BA in Liberal Arts and Humanities I can bring interdisciplinary insight and foresight to projects.
Projects
  • TACL: training aid for correct lifting
    TACL: training aid for correct liftingLower back pain is one of the most common health problems. Aimed at nurses, who are the most affected profession by back problems, I created an intervention that would be incorporated into their training. Most of back injuries are caused by poor lifting techniques. TACL is designed to prevent these - discretely placed underneath nurse's uniform where it is connected to the inner side of the uniform tunic and a belt loop of the trousers, it will warn them when lifting is not being done properly
