Hi, my name is Zac Baylis
I am a designer, engineer, and artist, currently working out of the Judge Business School at the University of Cambridge in the UK. I hold a 1st Class Degree at an undergraduate level from Imperial College London in Design Engineering (MEng) and an MPhil in Engineering and Management from Cambridge with Distinction, where I ranked 1st in my cohort.
When I put pen to paper, I want it to mean something to someone, for my designs to help people and improve lives. This website is a collection of my favourite works over my design journey. A current focus on leveraging data analytics has driven me towards work within machine learning and AI, with a focus on human-centred interaction.
With each project, you will notice two sections: a product and a process. This divide is significant and deliberate. I am a strong believer that the design process is the most fundamental component of a design and, as such, should be detailed within any portfolio, as it is the process that demonstrates the potential of the designer.
Please enjoy as I attempt to take you along the design journey.
Future Aims
I believe that understanding people is the key to being a successful designer, and so I wish to pursue my interests in human-centred design, pushing boundaries in both physical and digital domains. I have a current affinity for UI/UX software design and product ownership, which is where I am pursuing my graduate career.
