Dyslexic Design Engineer Working on High-Performance Cars - Interview with Matthew Head

Matthew has been a lifelong dyslexic having been diagnosed at 6 years old. Feeling burnt out by the end of college he left with a BTEC national diploma in engineering and took up a job as an HGV technician, working for Volvo and Mercedes-Benz trucks until his mid 20's. Where he left full-time employment to study a fast-track MEng at Robert Gordon University, "If you had asked the 19-year-old me who left college whether the 31-year-old me would have graduated with a Master’s Degree, I would have laughed, I can’t spell, so how the hell am I going to study a university education; that’s for clever people."

He set up a website Dyslexia Life Hacks (https://dyslexialifehacks.com) which is a collection of hacks tips and tricks he has gathered over the years, to assist fellow dyslexics in their day-to-day lives at home and at work. 

In recent years Matt has worked as a senior vehicle design engineer designing race cars and other high-performance cars to FIA standards including reverse engineering a 1960's Le Mans car from images and scan data, then moving on to designing the last generation of electric vehicles for a technology start-up.
