About 

I AM AN INTERIOR DESIGNER WHO THINKS OUTSIDE THE BOX. I AM INSPIRED BY ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIETAL FORCES. IN MY DESIGNS, I LOOK FOR MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL RELATIONSHIPS FOR EFFICIENCY AND EFFECTIVENESS. AS A GRADUATE FROM PARSONS THE NEW SCHOOL FOR DESIGN, I HAVE LEARNED COMPUTER SKILLS (AUTOCAD, RHINO, V-RAY, ADOBE CS), CONCEPT-DRIVEN DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS, AND GRAPHIC/VISUAL PRESENTATION. I HAVE COMPLETED TWO INTERIOR DESIGN INTERNSHIPS IN MANHATTAN IN THE RETAIL AND HOSPITALITY SECTORS. THE EXPERIENCE PAIRED WITH MY EDUCATION WAS INVALUABLE. 

I ALSO HAVE CULTIVATED YEARS OF BUSINESS EXPERIENCE WORKING AS AN ACCOUNTANT AT ERNST & YOUNG, THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FIRM, AND PMC-SIERRA, A PUBLICLY-TRADED COMPANY. I AM EAGER TO BRING VALUE AS SOMEONE WITH PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE IN PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND TEAM WORK. I AM EXTREMELY SELF-RELIANT AND RESOURCEFUL.
