My name is Truitt Lemon! Im a product design student at the University of Oregon from New Mexico. My work is driven by curiosity and a focus in performance footwear and user-centered design, with an interest in biomechanics, recovery, and how products can interact with the body and empower the user to perform at best ability..
My passion for design stems from a lifelong passion for art and sculpture and largely influenced by time spent in the outdoors and athletics. These experiences with movement and recovery have shaped how I see products as extensions of the body, where thoughtful details can directly influence performance.
Outside of design, I’ve worked as a raft guide and spend a lot of time backpacking and climbing`. I care a lot about the outdoors and preservation, and find inspiration in wildlife, music, and natural forms. These experiences constantly shape how I approach my work and generate inspiration.
