Ellie Camp

I’m an Industrial Design student at Humber Polytechnic with a passion for blending creativity, innovation, and problem-solving. Growing up, I was always crafting, building, and exploring new creative outlets, so product design became the perfect fit. At Humber, I’ve honed my ability to design meaningful, user-focused solutions that make a real impact. With a love for purposeful design and a drive to push boundaries, I’m excited to see where this ever-evolving industry takes me next!
