For the past year and a half I have been working in the commercial sector of interior design. I create space plans, 3D models and renderings of private offices, conference rooms, reception areas and workstations using AutoCAD, CET Designer and Sketch-Up. When I was in school earning my Bachelors in Interior Design I worked for 3 years at IKEA as the Home Furnishing Consultant/Business Specialist. I would help clients create spaces in their home using the IKEA spectrum, and also created a large business based clientele, including such names as Brighton Collectibles, Guess and Forever 21. I always made sure their experience with me was great from beginning to end.
