What advice would you offer to Design students to prepare them for the creative industries today? There is no advice. There is just hard work. Students are similar to buildings in constructions- There is still a lot of work to be done, before someone can come and live in the buildings. We should continue to learn and gather the most out of the professional knowledge that the Creative Practitioners in Raffles, have taught us. Lash-light attachment for spray cans

After Raffles, getting the first job is not a huge step, as there is a lot of demand of young designers with professional knowledge provider by Raffles. We should work hard and follow the trend and get the best out of what is provided. We should just finish everything that we start.

What do you see for your creative future in 2014 and beyond? I love bringing out unique ideas and present to the public. It should be unique and out of the ordinary as there are a lot of product designers in the world. We need to work differently in order to emerge as the best out of the rest. I am still working and learning the latest techniques in the field of designing, reducing time and increasing productivity in a very creative manner.
